New Orleans suffered extreme flooding as a result of Hurricane Katrina because no one knew that the city's levees needed to be strengthened. Option C is correct.

Hurricane Katrina was a highly destructive and fatal Category 5 hurricane that made landfall on Florida and Louisiana in August 2005, causing catastrophic damage; especially in the city of New Orleans and the surrounding areas.

Since the center of Hurricane Katrina passed southeast of New Orleans on August 29, 2005, winds downtown were in the Category 1 range with frequent intense gusts and tidal surge.

In what ways were the colonial governments similar? How do they differ?
Leno4ka [110]

Colonial governments were similar in that they were controlled by another powerful country.

For example, Great Britain's colonies in Nother America, Africa and Asia. They were all over the world but eventually controlled by powers in London.

Similar examples were seen when the United States colonized Phillipines and controlled it for many years.

However, they were different in that they all had seperate local governing bodies and signifcantly different laws and rules that reflected the needs and cultures of the local people.

soldier1979 [14.2K]
The best answer is 
<span>because the president should not associate with the justices

The president should not wield his power to nominate justices as a tool for political power. The President should respect the independence of the judicial branch. To fill the Supreme Court with political allies would essentially give the president control over both the Executive and judicial branch. Indirectly, the power of his veto and the Supreme Court's power of judicial review would also give him great influence over the legislative branch as well.  </span><span>
