The simplest answer is because they wanted to be ruled by a government that recognized the rights and power of the people being ruled. The bill of rights outlines and as much as possible guarantees what things are granted to everyone. It's not only freedom religion, assembly and speech. It is things like gun control, search and seizure, the right to trial, the right not to incriminate oneself by saying anything at all.

The constitution outlines how each of the governments divide up the power given to each of them. The most carefully written part has to do with the role of the federal government vs states rights.

Answer:

b. Argument; conclusion: From a historical point of view, genetics is a young science.

It follows a logical order where the premises offer reasons why the conclusion should be accepted as true.<em> Sometimes. however, the conclusion can come before the premises. </em>The writer of this text wants us to believe that genetics is a young science. This is the conclusion. He then goes on to provide historical proof or statements of facts that support this conclusion.
