Answer: a. The judiciary branch trying to hold a congressperson accountable if they overstep their role by meeting foreign leaders in an official diplomatic capacity to reverse US foreign policy.

Explanation: One important principle embodied in the U.S. Constitution is separation of powers.

If there are checks and balances, the branches of government can limit the powers of the others and no one branch will become too powerful over other branches. Checks and balances makes sure that the power is balanced between the branches of government.

The Executive Branch of government checks on Legislative by having the capability to veto bills. By rejection of appointments, the legislative Branch of government can put checks on the executive Branch. The legislative branch checks on Judicial by having the capacity to impeach the Supreme Court Justices.

Judicial Branch of government is the most powerful of all the branches. The Judicial Branch has the power to declare the acts of the congress and the executive branch of government un-constitutional.

Overstepping boundaries is unconstitutional in the US branches of government.

Highlight five (5)ways in which social media influence modem parenting​
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. We compare children much much more now with social media because we get to see who grows up successful in many ways now it's social media with communicating and sharing be easier to access

2.another one is we overshare, (for example, Sandra posted a picture of her daughter getting her a shot for a vaccine and the picture of her daughter has her screaming and kicking).

3. one positive thing about social media influencing parenting is if you have a phone you're most likely allowed to go more places because your parents can contact you within seconds.

4. Modern parents are now less likely to let their child do things and go places because they saw on the news or from a family member that something bad happened there unlike in the old days that you were able to spend all your time outside without having to worry about your child getting hurt. ( and yes I know this goes against my 3rd point)

5. social media has created some lazy parents that will just shove an iPad or phone into their child's face to quiet them or to get them from being angry.

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

The reason why cities located on the western coast of Norway have milder climate than other cities father inland is the sea: the sea mitigates climate extremes, bringing rain, moisture, cloud cover, and other meteorological phenomena, that moderate the climate.

Besides, the northern coast of Norway manages to get a bit of the warmer climate from the gulf stream.
