Given that in Latin, the word septem means seven, the word septentriones will tell us that seven stars make up the Big Dipper. 
And if you know anything about the Big Dipper, you will know that it is true - there are seven stars in this asterism. These seven stars are Dubhe, Merak, Phecda, Megrez, Alioth, Mizar, and Alkaid, and they are part of the constellation Ursa Major.

What is ironic about Jen’s step dad working for the population police? Among the hidden question. Explain with a full paragraph.
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The irony about Jen's step-dad working for the Population police is that he broke the rule of the Population Police of having two children, by having a third child, and yet working for the organization.

Explanation:

'Among the Hidden' is a novel written by Margaret Peterson Haddix. The novel is about a society, where the Population Police has prohibited families for having more than two children.

Jen, just like Luke, is a third child in her family. Jen's mother had two sons before Jen, but she decided to have a girl on purpose, so they bribed the doctor and had Jen as a third child. The irony about Jen's step-dad working for the Population Police is that he broke the rule of having two children by having a third child, yet he is working for the Population Police. He is working for the organization, whose rule he has broken, so this is the irony.
