Apportionment, aka reallocating congressional seats, occurs every 10 years following the census. The census collects data on the population.

Due to The Great Compromise, the House of Representatives is based on population. This is done to more accurately represent the people.

The number of seats in the house is set at 435. Following the census, if an area increased in population enough then it will gain seats, but if it decreased enough then it will lose seats. If they lose a seat then the incumbent no longer holds that position because it no longer exists.

House of Representative members are elected every even year. Apportionment doesn't kick anyone out of office because they finish out their term, but they will have to run for a new office as theirs no longer exists. It doesn't necessarily "replace" the congressman because they have to be voted into office.

An example of a right explicitly protected by the Constitution as drafted at the Constitutional Convention is the ________.
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

An example of a right explicitly protected by the Constitution as drafted at the Constitutional Convention is the right to a writ of habeas corpus.

Explanation:

The habeas corpus is a legal institution that forces all detained persons to be presented within a certain preventive period before the investigating judge, who could order the immediate release of the detainee if he does not find sufficient grounds for arrest.

The institution of habeas corpus allows to avoid arbitrary arrests and detentions, ensuring the basic rights of being heard by justice and knowing what they are accused of. It can also be said that it protects the fundamental rights derived from life and freedom from any act or omission of any authority, official or person that may violate those rights.

The right to collateral review via habeas corpus is guaranteed in Article 1 Section 9 of the US Constitution.

Answer:

racial formation theory

Explanation:

The racial formation theory was developed by Howard Winant and Michael Omi. This theory is considered as a tool that looked at the race as some socially constructed identity, in which the importance of the racial categories as well as the content are determined by economic, political and social forces.

This theory shows the racial classifications made to the blacks and the whites.  Different racial groups position themselves as the dominant racial group or the eliminating racial group. All this reflects the racial formation theory.
