B. congress sends very few amendments on to the states for consideration
C. The chief executive has the ability to influence the amendment process but has no power to ratify amendments
D. the national and state governments must work together to propose and ratify a constitutional amendment
i think its C
Right.
Do you have more time? i have a bunch i am not sure on its a timed test
The Framers included the supremacy clause in the constitution for the purpose of?
A. Giving federal government complete authority over all actions of state governments
B. Making the individual state governments more powerful than the federal government
C. Helping settle disputes between different levels of government in the federal system.
D. making the supreme court the most powerful branch of the federal government
i canceled out B i am thinking it is A.. but i am not sure.
A is right.
I disagree that C is right for the first question.
On the second question, A is a plausible answer. I think there is a better one. When state laws conflict with federal law, and/or with each other, the supremacy clause comes into effect. The federal government does not have absolute authority over the states in that some powers are left to the states.
Its C Reed it right^^^^^
To determine which fact about the amendment process best supports the quotation, let's analyze the options:
A. Amending the constitution is a complex process that usually takes years to accomplish: While this fact highlights the complexity of the amendment process, it does not explicitly emphasize the federal character of the government system.
B. Congress sends very few amendments on to the states for consideration: This fact indicates that not many amendments are proposed by Congress, but it does not directly relate to the federal character of the government system.
C. The chief executive has the ability to influence the amendment process but has no power to ratify amendments: This fact highlights the role of the chief executive, such as the President, in influencing the amendment process but not directly ratifying amendments. This fact does not necessarily address the federal character of the government system.
D. The national and state governments must work together to propose and ratify a constitutional amendment: This fact emphasizes the federal character of the government system by highlighting the collaboration between the national and state governments in proposing and ratifying constitutional amendments. It demonstrates that the amendment process requires cooperation and coordination between the federal and state levels.
Therefore, the option that best supports the quotation, "the formal amendment process emphasizes the federal character of the government system," is option D.
