The Tenure of Office Act of 1867 was an American federal law that regulated the dismissal of ministers from the Cabinet. It gained notoriety in particular through the impeachment proceedings against the President Andrew Johnson, who was accused of having violated it. In 1887, Congress rescinded the law. Later, in 1926, the Supreme Court invalidated a law similar to the Tenure of Office Act but which did not apply to Cabinet posts.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

heart.

Explanation:

In ancient Egypt, the heart was considered to be the center of thought and emotion. According to their belief system, in the afterlife, the heart was weighed in a balance against the famous feather of Maat, and the god in charge of performing this ritual was none other than Anubis, the god of death and the afterlife. As the ritual was supposed to happen, the heart had to balance the weight of the feather, for if the heart was heavier, the heart would be lost and the soul of that person destroyed.
