Answer:

The Massachusetts Supreme Court decisions in Walker v. Jennison and Commonwealth v. Jennison established the basis for ending slavery in Massachusetts on constitutional grounds, but no law or amendment to the state constitution was passed. Instead slavery gradually ended "voluntarily" in the state over the next decade

Explanation:

Fugitive slave. Fugitive slave, any individual who escaped from slavery in the period before and including the American Civil War. In general they fled to Canada or to free states in the North, though Florida (for a time under Spanish control) was also a place of refuge.

Describe the impact of the Supreme Court on the shaping of federal public policy
inn [45]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Describe the impact of the Supreme Court on the shaping of federal public policy.

As one of the federal branches of the United States government, the Legislative branch -the US Supreme Court- has the power to overturn legislation that is considered unconstitutional. If the judges consider that legislation is unlawful or against the principles of the US Constitution, they have the power to declare it unconstitutional. That is why the Supreme Court can shape the decisions of the federal government.

Let's remember that when the founding fathers created the checks and balances system for US politics, they decided that none of the three branches would have more power than the other two.

After a case has been granted certiorari which is when four Justices agree to review a case it is then the justices may decide against further review of the case. They can review a case an decide to dismiss it if Court may feel the case presented during oral arguments did not present the constitutional issues in a clear-cut way. In this event the writ of certiorari is "dismissed as improvidently granted" (DIG)—saying, in effect that the Court should not have accepted the case. Harsh right XD

The Supreme Court accepts 100-150 of the more than 7,000 cases that it is asked to review each year. - Us courts website claims this number

How do Earth's global winds help transfer heat through the atmosphere?
mamaluj [8]

The ocean and atmosphere are connected. They work together to move heat and fresh water across the globe. Wind-driven and ocean-current circulations move warm water toward the poles and colder water toward the equator. The ocean can store much more heat than the land surfaces on the Earth. The majority of the thermal energy at the Earth’s surface is stored in the ocean. Thus, the absorption and movement of energy on the Earth is related to the ocean-atmosphere system.
