Answer:

Children played a significant role in the workforce.

Children made up a large portion of the workforce.

Explanation:

children played a significant role in the work force. children could fit in places and do jobs that regular adults due to being smaller and nimble with machines. children were considered more expendable on the job. they were payed less then adults. when factories had to give days off for holidays they would hire kids to work instead. it was harder for kids to fight back not only for being weaker but were taken advantage of. sometimes mothers would bring their daughters to work with them just to make more money. one year after a cence of children dead or not being with their families people started to take notice. In the United States, there were over 750,000 children under the age of 15 working in 1870. The U.S. Congress passed two laws, in 1918 and 1922, but the Supreme Court declared both unconstitutional. In 1924, Congress proposed a constitutional amendment prohibiting child labor, but the states did not ratify it. Then, in 1938, Congress passed the Fair Labor Standards Act.

What did most of the first state constitutions have in common? select one:
SIZIF [17.4K]

b. power was divided among three branches of government.

The Constitution requires that state constitutions maintain a republican form of government and therefore the states followed the three branch model set by the federal government.

The Constitution gave specific and implied powers to the states. To run the business of each state, they created state constitutions to organize their state system. Each state took on the three branch system to organize their state government. The executive branch has a governor as the state leader. The legislative branch in most states is also bicameral or has two houses mimicking the federal Congress. Lastly, the states created a judicial branch with a state supreme court with county and city court houses to support the local levels of the judicial branch.
