These boxes describe two events related to the U.S. government:
vivado [14]

Answer:

Example A: checks and balances; Example B: separation of powers

Explanation:

The Founding Fathers were afraid of a government with too much power, which it feared could take away people's basic rights. They believed in creating a limited and constitutional government. Therefore, the U.S. Constitution divides the powers of government into three separate branches: legislative, executive, and judicial. We call this the separation of powers. Some of the powers of each branch were designed to limit, or "check," the overall power of the other branches. The purpose of these checks is to balance the branches of government so that no one branch could become too powerful. Example A is an example of checks and balances at work. The U.S. Supreme court (judicial branch) checked the power of the U.S. Congress (legislative branch) by declaring a law that they made unconstitutional. Example B shows separation of powers. The U.S. Congress (legislative branch) passed a law and the Internal Revenue Service (executive branch) enforces it. This is an example of how the U.S. Constitution divides the powers of government into three separate branches.

6) The industrial revolution marks the beginning of the massive use of _____ by societies for energy purposes.
ludmilkaskok [199]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The industrial revolution marks the beginning of the massive use of fossil fuels by societies for energy purposes.

These fossil fuels such as charcoal or oil were used to make machines function for long operation hours in the fabrics of industrial America. At that time, many people left the rural areas of the country and decided to move to larger cities such as Chicago and New York to work in the factories that were hiring workers. They worked there under low salaries and unhealthy working conditions. Those fabrics polluted air and many times, water.
