Nullification is a legal theory that a state has the right to nullify, or invalidate, any federal law it deems unconstitutional. ... In "South Carolina Exposition and Protest", Calhoun argued that a state could veto any federal law that went beyond the enumerated powers and encroached upon the residual powers of the State.

In which part of the government, according to the constitution, is the number of representatives based on population?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. According to the Constitution, the part of the government in which the number of representatives is based on population is the House of Representatives.

Explanation:

The United States House of Representatives is the lower house of the United States Congress, while the upper house is the Senate. Each state obtains representation in the House proportional to its population, with the right to a minimum of one representative. The most populous state, California, has 53 representatives. The total number of representatives is currently set at 435 by the Reapportionment Act of 1929, although Congress retains the power to modify that number. Each representative is elected for a period of two years and may be re-elected.

What are the characteristics of factories
pshichka [43]
If you're talking about factories back in the day… 

Think of the Industrial Revolution. ESPECIALLY in England. People were flocking to big cities where factories were so they could get jobs. This caused over population and a lot of struggle.

Factories were overcrowded, dirty, and very "harsh". Children were a big issue during this time because owners used them for work and they were so young. There were a lot of injuries, fires, and such because of just the lack of control in factories.

Now a days, we have learned from our mistakes and made factories cleaner and MORE ORGANIZED.
