Lilit [14]

Answer:

On March 25, a Saturday afternoon, there were 600 workers at the factory when a fire began in a rag bin. The manager attempted to use the fire hose to extinguish it, but was unsuccessful, as the hose was rotted and its valve was rusted shut.

Explanation:

So one person was using a rag and had wiped up oil with the rag. Without knowing it, there was an electrical wire sticking out of the wall that was poking through one of the holes in the rag bin.

Which statement best completes the diagram of the ways the different

svp [43]

Answer:

To complete the diagram the correct response is Option A: Congress can impeach justices who are accused of abusing their power.

Explanation:

The branches of government can limit each other's power in a number of ways. For example, it is the Supreme Court that can rule a president's actions unconstitutional. In addition, the President can obstruct the Supreme Court Ruling by refusing to enforce them. This has happened twice historically with Andrew Jackson going ahead with allowing the Indian Removal Act to move forward and Abraham Lincoln defying the Supreme Court on the habeas corpus ruling. Likewise, the exception clause in the Constitution grants Congress the power to make exceptions to the constitutionally defined appellate jurisdiction of the Supreme Court. Congress can also propose amendments to the Constitution that would effectively make a Supreme Court decision moot. Finally, the Supreme Court can overturn an unconstitutional law passed by Congress.
