The correct answer is B) Only states could raise taxes, so the national government had a hard time paying its debts and expenses.

Ther Articles of Confederation was America's first constitution after breaking away from Great Britain. One of the main questions when developing this constitution was who would have the power to tax. Considering that taxation without representation was one of the causes for America's decision to leave Great Britain, it helps us to understand why this power was not given to the federal government. Rather, this power was given to state governments as citizens interacted more with their state government rather than the federal government.

What split did the Scopes Trial reveal?
marta [7]
The Scopes Trial reveled a split between the scientific and religious community.

In this case, John T. Scopes was arrested. Scopes, a substitute teacher, was arrested for teaching the students about the theory of evolution. This broke a Tennessee state law, which stated that only creationism should be taught. After he was arrested, Scopes was put on trial.

Many members of the science community supported Scopes, as they see the theory of evolution as an important concept in understanding how humans evolved. On the other hand, members of the religious community wanted Scopes punished. This is because his teachings went against their religious beliefs.
