The Underground Railroad is not a railroad that is underground, instead, it is referring to a secret passage for slave escaping in safe houses. The conductor of the Underground Railroad could be the person who helps the slave escape, the lines could refer to the road or the passage which the slaves escaped from one safe house to another, the station could refer to the stops they make in the safe houses, and the freight may refer to the slaves that are escaping.

Which of the following articles from the Constitution could be used to effectively argue in favor of judicial review?
masha68 [24]

Answer:

4. The judicial Power shall extend to all Cases, in Law and Equity, arising under this Constitution, the Laws of the United States, and Treaties made, or which shall be made, under their Authority.

Explanation:

Number 4 is the best option that argues in favor of judicial review as it holds that the judicial's power should extend to ALL cases, in law and equity, under the Constitution, laws or treaties of the nation. Many interpret it to mean that the Judicial, then, has the power to review the actions of the Legislative and the Executive in case they do not comply with the law.

For example, if the legislative branch enacts a law that is not consistent with the Constitution (like a law that establishes a religion) the Supreme Court has the power to review it and declare it unconstitutional as it goes against the first amendment; and if the President were to start collecting taxes (which it is not one of their functions), the Supreme Court would also have the power to declare such act unconstitutional.

Which of the following best describes the Aztec
Allisa [31]

Answer:

B. Peaceful farmers

Explanation:

The Aztecs were skilled farmers and gardeners. In the marshland, the Aztecs had very little fertile land. But they appeared able to feed hundreds of thousands of residents of the capital, extracting maximum benefit from the environment in which they settled. In the suburbs of Mexico City, one can find quite unusual agricultural structures, known as floating gardens - chinampas. These buildings are so unusual that they are on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Chinampas is an agricultural structure consisting of canals and artificial islands. These floating gardens built around the city were able to feed a population of several hundred people. Their technology provided a very large crop.
