Special powers of the House of Representatives:

Bringing charges against officials to remove them from office.

That process is called impeachment.

Choosing a president if the Electoral College results in a tie or no clear majority for one candidate.

This has occurred only twice in presidential election history. In the election of 1800, when Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr had the same number of electoral votes, and Congress named Jefferson as President and Burr as Vice-President. In the 1824 election, votes were split between Andrew Jackson, John Quincy Adams, William Crawford, and Henry Clay. Thugh Jackson had more electoral votes than any of the others, Congress voted for John Quincy Adams as President.

Creating bills that raise funds for government services.

The House of Representatives initiates funding bills for the budget, but then the Senate must approve also.

Karl von baer also lent proof toa theory of evolution. what did he do

zmey [24]

Answer: Karl Von Baer was an Estonian biologist and generalized the observations around embryology into laws bearing its name.

His laws indicate that the earlier we are in the embryonic phase, the closer the classes of distant organisms look to each other. As embryos develop, they diverge further from embryos of other species.

The von Baer sequence poses more problems for evolutionary mythology since natural selection cannot explain the pattern of embryonic development. Natural selection does not want to know if a trait is widespread or specific. It does not see attributes so it cannot sort them according to a special sequence.
