Answer:

B) Approval of Senate

Explanation:

The president of the United States is head of the state and the commander in chief of all branches of U.S armed forces. He appoints the head of the federal agencies, the Secretaries of the Cabinet agencies and the Justices of the U.S Supreme court. As part of the system of checks and balances,  the president's nominees for these positions require the approval of the Senate. He can also appoint more than 300 people to various high-level positions within the federal government without the approval of the Senate.

Answer:

The correct answer is B. The official body that must confirm and approve the appointments of Alan's 15 nominees is the Senate.

Explanation:

The Senate has several exclusive powers, which are listed in the Article 1 of the United States Constitution; the most significant is that the president cannot ratify international treaties or, with rare exceptions, cannot make important designations of authorities (the most important being ambassadors, members of the federal judiciary, including the Supreme Court and members of the Cabinet) without the consent and advice of the Senate.

padilas [110]

As the Soviet Union dissolved and the cold war ended the balance of power in Europe and especially Eastern European changed forever.

While earlier, the Soviet Union held sway over much of Eastern Europe, that completely disintegrated overnight. The Soviet influence in the region was shattered.

On the edges of Eastern Europe were the NATO countries, who quickly became the dominant political and military force in the region without any rival.

Communism and socialist policies also ended as newly freed countries started to transition to market-based economy.

How did the invention of the steam locomotive and the clipper ship change the way American goods were marketed
krek1111 [17]
The steam locomotive allowed for the transportation of goods at a much more rapid rate than by horse. The railroad let people know exactly where and when goods would arrive. The trains also gave the cargo a safer ride as it was much more difficult to rob a train than a horse drawn transport. As more railroads were built, products could travel farther than ever before in a timely manner. This brought down the cost of freight transport and increased profits for many businesses.
