Answer:

hi!

Explanation:

1. What evidence can be offered to support this statement: Although it is not a legal obligation, voting is the most important duty a citizen can carry out?

Another responsibility of citizens is to vote. The law does not require citizens to vote, but voting is a very important part of any democracy. By voting, citizens participate in the democratic process. Citizens vote for leaders to represent them and their ideas, and leaders support the interests of citizens.

2. Explain what rights states have to make laws against abortion based on the Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade.

The central court decision that created current abortion law in the U.S. is Roe v. Wade. In this 1973 decision, the Supreme Court ruled that women had a constitutional right to abortion, and that this right was based on an implied right to personal privacy emanating from the Ninth and Fourteenth Amendments. The decision forced to modify all federal and specific laws that banned or restricted abortion and were contrary to the new decision.

3. Which form of direct democracy at the state level involves citizens voting to approve a specific piece of legislation?

Initiative, Referendum and Recall  

Initiative

In political terminology, the initiative is a process that enables citizens to bypass their state legislature by placing proposed statutes and, in some states, constitutional amendments on the ballot.  

Referendum

"Referendum" is a general term which refers to a measure that appears on the ballot. There are two primary types of referenda: the legislative referendum, whereby the Legislature refers a measure to the voters for their approval, and the popular referendum, a measure that appears on the ballot as a result of a voter petition drive.  

Recall

Recall is a procedure that allows citizens to remove and replace a public official before the end of a term of office.

4. Which stage in the life cycle of a movement is marked by much broader acceptance of the movement's ideas or attitudes?

B.) coalescence

Coalescence: The second stage of a social movement’s life cycle, which is characterized the coming together of social movement constituents. This stage is marked by demonstrations and formulation of strategy.

5. What caused the Supreme Court to overturn its decision making it mandatory to salute the flag?

D.) that the original ruling caused harm to school children

West Virginia State Board of Education (1943), is a landmark decision by the United States Supreme Court holding that the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment protects students from being forced to salute the American flag or say the Pledge of Allegiance in public school.

6. Explain how the rules of jus soli and jus sanguinis apply to citizenship in the United States.

Under jus soli, a person receives American citizenship by virtue of being born in the United States. This "right of birthplace" is guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. By contrast, jus sanguinis confers citizenship on those born to at least one U.S. citizen anywhere in the world.

7. Supreme Court Justice Holmes once included this statement in a majority opinion: “During wartime, utterances tolerable in peacetime can be punished.” How did this statement inform the Supreme Court's later decisions on freedom of speech?

Holmes, speaking for a unanimous court, concluded that Schenck is not protected in this situation. The character of each act depends on the circumstances.  During the war, tolerable statements in peacetime can be punished.  

8. How did the Fourteenth Amendment play a role in Gideon v. Wainwright?

C.) Its due process clause requires that states provide counsel to defendants for all types of trials.

Gideon v. Wainwright (1963) In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court established that the Fourteenth Amendment creates a right for criminal defendants who cannot pay for their own lawyers to have the state appoint attorneys on their behalf.

9. How does the amendment process ensure the Constitution grows with the country?

A.) It defines the changes necessary to maintain democracy.

B.) It requires all lawmakers to agree on how to address new challenges.

C.) It allows the Constitution to be changed as new needs arise.

D.) It ensures due process for all American citizens.

Sorry i dont know the answer for this one.

10. What is the most appropriate category for the Freemasons?

C.) interest group

A Mason (or Freemason) is a member of a fraternity known as Masonry (or Freemasonry). A fraternity is a group of men (just as a sorority is a group of women) who join together because:

o There are things they want to do in the world.

o There are things they want to do "inside their own minds."

o They enjoy being together with men they like and respect.
