What are common ways enslaved Africans resisted onboard the slave ship

mote1985 [20]

Enslaved Africans resisted, or rebelled, against their position as slaves in many different ways. Each expression of resistance by enslaved individuals or groups counted as acts of rebellion against the system of slavery. The many instances of resistance show that slaves were not passive victims of slavery. Instead they proved their strength and determination in fighting for their freedom. In particular, enslaved Africans on the Caribbean plantations rebelled against their owners in many different ways.

Which statement best completes the diagram of the ways the different

svp [43]

Answer:

To complete the diagram the correct response is Option A: Congress can impeach justices who are accused of abusing their power.

Explanation:

The branches of government can limit each other's power in a number of ways. For example, it is the Supreme Court that can rule a president's actions unconstitutional. In addition, the President can obstruct the Supreme Court Ruling by refusing to enforce them. This has happened twice historically with Andrew Jackson going ahead with allowing the Indian Removal Act to move forward and Abraham Lincoln defying the Supreme Court on the habeas corpus ruling. Likewise, the exception clause in the Constitution grants Congress the power to make exceptions to the constitutionally defined appellate jurisdiction of the Supreme Court. Congress can also propose amendments to the Constitution that would effectively make a Supreme Court decision moot. Finally, the Supreme Court can overturn an unconstitutional law passed by Congress.
