I believe the correct answer would be A. It is unequal distribution of resources that is not a major factor that would lead to genocide. Genocide is the intentional killing of a group of people. It would be a result due to instability in terms of political and social factors.

NOT a major factor leading to genocide:  D. distribution of power among ethnic groups.

If that choice said "<u>unequal</u> distribution of power," that would be a different story.  But the statement simply lists distribution of power among ethnic groups.  That would imply that all ethnic groups have a share in power, which would help prevent one group being able to carry out genocide against another.

The contributing factors that do increase the likelihood of genocide:

  • economic, political, or social instability
  • unequal distributions of power and resources
  • leaders who increase tensions between groups  (which would mean an unequal distribution of power among classes).

An example would be the genocide that occurred in Rwanda. The genocide in Rwanda had arisen out of problems created by colonialism in that country.  The Dutch colonial government had favored the Tutsi people over the Hutus. (The factor of leaders increasing tension between groups.)  That created unequal distribution of power and resources.  When the Dutch pulled out of the country, the postcolonial situation was one of great economic, political and social instability.  All of this played into the violence by Hutus against Tutsis when the Hutus came into power in Rwanda.

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The upland area that lies to the west of the mountain range in the eastern United States is the Appalachian Plateau.

Explanation:

The Appalachian Plateau is a region of <em>flat and wide</em> land that is fairly <em>high </em>above sea level. It lies to the <em>west</em> of the Appalachians and it stretches from the north (<em>Adirondack Mountains</em> in the state of New York) to the <em>Gulf Coastal Plain</em> in the south.

The Appalachian Plateau has a massive extension:

  • Adirondacks, New York
  • Pennsylvania
  • West Virginia
  • Ohio
  • Kentucky
  • Virginia
  • Tennessee
  • Alabama
  • Gulf Coastal Plain

The western and eastern areas of the plateau are bordered by a series of <em>mountain ranges</em>, one of them being the Appalachian Mountain Range.

The Appalachian Mountain Range runs all along the eastern United States, and in terms of geology, it is the oldest range in North America. <em>Mount Mitchell</em>, being its highest <em>peak</em> (6,684 ft) is located in <em>North Carolina</em>.

Understanding the Case
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Marbury: Was appointed as a federal judge - Supported the Judiciary Act of 1789 - Argued for original jurisdiction.

-Madison: Refused to honor an appointment.Explanation:

Marbury v. Madison was a judicial case resolved by the Supreme Court of the United States in 1803. It arose as a result of a political dispute following the presidential elections of 1800, in which Thomas Jefferson, who was a Democratic Republican, defeated then-President John Adams, who was a federalist. In the last days of the outgoing government of Adams, the Congress, dominated by the federalists, established a series of judicial positions, among them 42 justices the of peace for the District of Columbia. The Senate confirmed the appointments, the president signed them and the Secretary of State was in charge of sealing and delivering the appointment documents. In the last-minute hustle and bustle, the outgoing secretary of state did not deliver the minutes of appointment to four justices of the peace, including William Marbury.

The new secretary of state under President Jefferson, James Madison, refused to deliver the minutes of appointment as the new government was irritated by the maneuver of the federalists of trying to secure control of the judiciary with the appointment of members of their party just before ceasing in government. However, Marbury appealed to the Supreme Court to order Madison to deliver his record.

If the Court ruled in favor of Marbury, Madison could still refuse to deliver the record and the Supreme Court would have no way to enforce the order. If the Court ruled against Marbury, it risked submitting the judiciary to Jefferson's supporters by allowing them to deny Marbury the position he could legally claim. Chief Justice John Marshall resolved this dilemma by deciding that the Supreme Court was not empowered to settle this case. Marshall ruled that Section 13 of the Judiciary Act, which granted the Court these powers, was unconstitutional because it extended the original jurisdiction of the Court to the jurisdiction defined by the Constitution itself. Having decided not to intervene in this particular case, the Supreme Court secured its position as final arbiter of the law.

The main reaction to the failure of the articles of confederation was to:
Goshia [24]
The Articles of Confederation was the first written constitution of the United States. Stemming from wartime urgency, its progress was slowed by fears of central authority and extensive land claims by states before was it was ratified on March 1, 1781. Under these articles, the states remained sovereign and independent, with Congress serving as the last resort on appeal of disputes. Congress was also given the authority to make treaties and alliances, maintain armed forces and coin money. However, the central government lacked the ability to levy taxes and regulate commerce, issues that led to the Constitutional Convention in 1787 for the creation of new federal laws.
