a) Identify factors that led to the Russian Revolution (1917).
The October Revolution in Russia in 1917 signified the collapse of Tsarist Russia and the establishment of a regime by the Bolsheviks and the leader of the Communist Party, Lenin. The main reason, among others, was the dissatisfaction of peasants and workers due to large class differences. The dissatisfaction of workers and peasants was preceded by several wars that Russia led and lost all, but the war with Turkey. Peasants barely survived in unreformed economic agricultural conditions. Workers fought for bigger rights in factories, for shortening working hours, but primacy was in waging wars, rather than dealing with economic issues and dissatisfaction of workers and peasants. Also, Emperor Nicholas spent more time dealing with his own family than on state issues. All this led to the general dissatisfaction of the people and the October Revolution.
b) Identify factors that led to the Mexican Revolution (1910–17).
Some of the factors that led to the Mexican Revolution were the dictatorship-like way of ruling that Porfirio Diaz exhibited for over 30 years, the exploitation and poor treatment of laborers, and the large disparity between rich and poor. While there is no definite cause for the Mexican Revolution, there were many factors that led to the decision to rebel against the government.

Explanation:
The answer is A, too much power in the central government.
America
had just experienced the rule of a tyrannical leader. They were afraid
that if they gave the central government too much power, then they would
end up going through the same problems again. So they ended up giving
too much power to the states, and too little to the central government.
Later on they had to change the rule because nothing was working out
well. They owed other countries money and they figured that something
had to change.
Answer:
The real advantage is that of having a considerable separation of power within the government.
Explanation:
With two houses or governing bodies in the United States, it provides less chances of corruption, a devolution of power among different institutions, and helps to keep a check on one another.
With just one house, there is too much power concentrated in the hands of a small number of people. This hampers the development of a proper democracy.
A democratization government needs to have a leader with limited power.
