The correct answer is A.

If the President refuses to sign the bill or to veto it, the bill becomes law, without his signature. The only exception to this rule is the "pocket veto" which is a process by which the Congress suspends its sessions after to send a bill to the President and given his refusal to take any action, the Congress dismisses the bill.

Answer:

A. The president vetoes a bill by ignoring it until Congress dismisses.

Explanation:

The US President has the power of vetoing the laws that are passed by the Legislative Branch as a part of the check and balances system. The Pocket Veto is not a part of this system. When a law is passed, the President has 10 days to review the measure and sign it or not. The Pocket Veto occurs when the President does not veto the law, but simply ignores it. Almost every president has used it since James Madison in 1812.

How did agriculture change during the new imperialism?
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer: B. More food was grown to feed world populations.

Explanation:

The new imperialism represents the period from the end of the 19th century to the 20th century. European countries primarily "turn" to mass colonization of the African and Asian continents. It is a period of more intensive industrial development. As new economic opportunities open up, new markets are formed, the number of people involved in new imperialist currents increases. Therefore, it was necessary to produce a larger amount of food to meet all the market needs. Advances in science and technology have also led to an increase in population, so food demand has become higher.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

<u>FRENCH REVOLUTION</u>

Explanation:

Romanticism occurs after the bourgeois revolution of 1789, lasts until the mid-19th century, and is a kind of reaction to classicism. This literary direction regards the subject of creativity as one's feelings, emphasizes irrationalism, and seeks out its sources in folk art and the oral creation of one's own people, but also of foreign, often exotic peoples, and in distant historical periods.
