Briefly summarize the imbalance of power (between the U.S. national gov't and the states) under the Articles of Confederation, t
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The Articles of Confederation was an agreement within the 13 states in accepting the us as confederation of sovereign states and created it's 1st constitution. The articles allowed the Continental Congress to run the revolutionary war, perform diplomacy within Europe, print money, and find out territorial issues.

However, the articles created a weak government and one house legislature congress wasn't allowed to tax and do any type or foreign trade. It left the govt to be short in money and therefore the people were allowed to manage their own trade.

In 1787, the state delegates called to revise the articles of confederation, called the Constitutional Convention. Congress of Confederation was the new governing body.

In 1775 colonies started calling themselves states and creating new constitutions. They wanted bicameral state legislatures, strong executive leaders, less restriction on the people, and continuance of established religions by the state. Also people wanted less restricted voting or holding office requirements.

With the assistance of Hamilton et al. the constitution was created. The constitution tried to limit the power of the govt and distribute it into the checks and balances. People didn't want to simply accept the constitution because the bill of rights limited the government's power, provide a constitutional reassurance the people would keep their rights and liberty.

When maurice's father walks through the door after the end of a long day at work, maurice jumps up, claps his hands, and runs to
KatRina [158]

From the description given in the question it is clear that Maurice’s understanding of the association between his father’s keys opening the lock and his father’s appearance is a form of classical conditioning. Classical conditioning is <em>a learning process that occurred when an organism associates a neutral stimulus with an unconditioned response, due to the presence of an unconditioned stimulus. </em>

It can be said that the sound of the key is the neutral stimulus, and the unconditioned stimulus is Maurice’s father appearance, while the unconditioned response is his happiness at seeing his father. Because Maurice has associated the sound of the key with his father’s appearance, his behavior changed even when the neutral stimulus appears, because he anticipates that the unconditioned response would appear afterwards.
