Answer:
b. The Constitution limits the executive branch to keep the president from becoming too powerful.
Answer:
c) try to find new trade routes to Africa and Asia
Explanation:
Finding new trade routes to Africa and Asia is a good way to gain a competitive advantage over other European, rival states. This in fact what Portugal first, and later Spain, did during the later years of the 1400s.
The motivation was that the Ottoman Empire controlled the Eastern Mediterranean, and this prevented Western European nations from trading with East Asia and the Middle East with ease.
Portugal opted to look for new routes around Africa, and the Indian Ocean, while Spain decided to look for a new route throught the west, which led to the arrival of Columbus in the Americas in 1492.
There exists the same question from other source with the following choices:
<span>A: Many southerners depended too heavily on industry.
B: After the civil war, many southerners struggles financially.
C: The civil war and reconstruction had little effect on the south.
D: Southerners needed to focus more on cotton production
The correct answer to this question is letter "</span>A: Many southerners depended too heavily on industry."
The veto power of the president under the U.S. Constitution best reflects the principle of "checks and balances," or a "balance of power," since this stops the Congress from becoming too powerful.
