The legislative branch is one of three divisions of government that works in conjunction with the executive and judicial branches. Its main responsibility is the creation of laws. The United States Constitution outlines the powers of the legislative branch, Congress, which is divided into two houses: the Senate and the House of Representatives. Every state within the country has a legislative branch, which acts in a similar fashion to the federal legislative branch. Article I of the Constitution outlines the federal legislative branch.

The House of Representatives has 435 members from all 50 states. Each state's population decides how many members in the House it will receive. Members of the House serve for a two-year term and must be at least 25 years old. The Senate has 100 members with each state electing two senators apiece. Each member of the Senate must be at least 30 years old.

Each of the 50 states also has legislative branches that create legislation and consider legislation introduced by the state's governor. Forty-nine states have a bicameral (two-house) legislature that is similar to the federal legislature. All of these states refer to their upper house as the Senate, while some states refer to their lower house as either the House of Representatives or the Assembly. Nebraska is the only state that has a unicameral (one-house) legislature.

Which of the following is NOT a true statement about the taking of Mexico City during the war with Mexico?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

The correct answer is D, as General Winfield Scott and his army did not travel along the Mexican National Highway during the Mexican-American War, as it wasn't even built at the time.

Explanation:

The Mexican-American War confronted Mexico and the United States between 1846 and 1848. It began as a result of the expansionist pretensions of the United States, whose first step was the creation of the Republic of Texas, which separated from the Mexican state of Coahuila and Texas. Other triggers were the entry of the US Army into the area between the Nueces and Grande rivers and the demand for compensation from the Mexican government for the damages caused in Texas during its war of independence.  

The Americans landed in Veracruz and conquered the Mexican capital, after which the Mexicans were forced to sign the peace of Guadalupe Hidalgo, by which the United States annexed the current states of California, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Colorado and part of today Wyoming.

babymother [125]
On Jan. 22, 2006, Bryant scored 81 points in the Los Angeles Lakers’ victory over the Raptors. When it came to Bryant, he never had a limit. He always thought anything was possible. He thinks that a game is a testament to what happens when you put no ceiling to what you are capable of doing. It’s with that mindset that he put on one of the most impressive individual displays in NBA history.
