Answer:

Because of John Marshall, the Supreme Court can review the constitutionality of federal laws that allegedly contradict the Constitution of the United States. This arises from the ruling in Marbury v. Madison, written by Chief Justice Marshall.

Explanation:

Marbury v. Madison is the most significant precedent of the Supreme Court, which gave the power to oversee the constitutionality of laws, as well as to protect the human rights and freedoms of citizens guaranteed by the Constitution.

In this matter, the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court is established in cases where there are differing opinions of appellate courts, when a federal law is being evaluated, and especially when a constitutional issue is raised.

In this way, this ruling modified the system of "checks and balances", allowing the federal judiciary to control legislative and executive power in certain cases. This specific power of the judiciary is not enshrined in the Constitution, but has been put into practice through judicial review. It implies the right of courts to declare invalid and to repeal acts of executive and legislative power (both of the President and of Congress) which are considered contrary to the Constitution. The Supreme Court, through judicial review, cannot amend the Constitution, but can only interpret and apply it in a manner it deems appropriate.

What are two theories that explain the development of humans language
FromTheMoon [43]
There are many, but the major ones are that

1) language is  somehow saved in our genes, which means that people with better communication skills had a survival advantage over those that didn't and that language is innate. This usually means that the specific parts of language: syntax for example are innate too

2) language was "invented" like writing: and then it was transmitted and changed.
