Question

A constitution adopted by the people creates a government and gives that government A. the right to establish another modified government overseen by regular citizens. B. the power to adopt laws governing the people. C. the groundwork for adopting an interim government in specific states. D. the framework for amending laws, but not adopting laws.

Answer 1

I'd say B, because they call them 'amendments' in the United States, they can add, but cannot remove.

Answer 2

The constitution is the set of fundamental principles that sets forth the legal basis of a country. In a constitutional democracy, the power of government is defined and limited by the constitution, and the electorate has the means to elect their representatives and hold them accountable for their actions in office.

Therefore, a constitution adopted by the people creates a government and gives the government B. the power to adopt laws governing the people.
