Answer:

The desire for a new Constitution was borne out of some of the lapses of the Articles of Confederation which produced a weak central government.  In 1787, representatives from 12 states from the existing 13 states in the United States converged to draft the new U.S Constitution. Several deliberations were made to form a better and stronger system of government. However, two alliances were formed at that time as a faction. One was the Federalists and the other was the Anti-Federalists. The Federalists were led by Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison. They wanted a sizable amount of representation in government among states based on their population.  

During the process of ratifying the Constitution, the Federalists argued that the Bill of Rights need not be part of the Constitution. They believed that with the addition of the Bill of Rights, the rights of citizens would be affected negatively and less protected.

The Anti-Federalists, on the other hand, wanted the same representation in all states. This alliance was led by Patrick Henry. They argued for the Bill of Rights and was against every move to establish a new Constitution, on the ground that, the constitution will give more powers to the National government and this will be detrimental to the citizens' rights.

A compromise was agreed on and after much debate on the issues of the Bill of Rights, the Constitution was submitted to the Congress of Federation in 1787 and by 1788, it had been ratified by most states.

Keisha had a memorable night at a close friend's wedding. Between the beautiful scenery, the touching vows, and the dancing, thi
Vikki [24]

Answer:    Storage and retrieval

Explanation:  In Keisha's case, as mentioned, she will remember for many years her friend's wedding night, so it's long-term memory, and that memory is arranged and stored as encoded in different parts of the brain, not in all parts, but not only one part of the brain. This means that a long-term stored memory encoded in this way can always be found and "recalled". There is another important fact in the question, that this is a really beautiful night of her friend's wedding. It should be said that all information is initially stored in short-term memory, and that important information is transferred over time to long-term memory. Since this is really important information / experience when it comes to Keisha, then surely all the information, that is, the experiences of the wedding will go into her long-term memory and she will remember the wedding for many years.

Which of the following represents an implied power given to the Federal Government?
zimovet [89]
I don’t know what the options are, but implied powers are those powers given by congress that are not always represented in the constitution. an example would be a bank, the constitution doesn’t say congress can make a bank but they must be allowed to if they are allowed to collect taxes. hope that makes sense.
