Answer:

The correct answer is D. The U.S. Senate was created as a slower, more deliberative body in which legislation is forced to proceed at a more thoughtful pace to protect against radical shifts in government that result from swift changes in popular opinion.

Explanation:

In the US political system, the Senate is instrumental in legislation and has important oversight functions over the President. These include ratification of international treaties, a say in the appointment of senior judges and government officials and the impeachment procedure in which the Senate takes on the role of the court.

The Vice President of the United States is also the President of the Senate with an almost exclusively representative function; his vote counts only in the event of a tie in a vote. During his absence, the Senate elects a president pro tempore, usually the longest-serving member of the majority group.

The Senate was conceived as a deliberative organ and leaves its individual members a relatively large amount of political freedom without the need for political groups; there are always party-independent senators. These usually join a parliamentary group in order to be taken into account when filling the specialist committees in which the legislative work is prepared and which basically work according to seniority.

Answer:

d. to protect against radical shifts in government that result from swift changes in popular opinion

Explanation:

The senate serves to "mediate" and reach proper agreements based on well thought out and thorough proceedings from a handful representative of the people. It works to protect against swift, radical changes in government as it checks and balances other government loopholes that could push for radical changes that may be harmful to the system.

How did the us and russia differ in their plans for germany?
Ymorist [56]
If you're referring to the post WW2 period, then it was fairly simple, the United States wanted to create a democratic liberal country that would share their political goals in Europe, while the Soviets wanted to make it into a Communist state that would share their goals and ideals in Europe. Each would have their own central European country to control the remainder of Europe.

kobusy [5.1K]

max2010maxim [7]

According to most Romanticists, the developments of science and industry brought harmful changes.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Romanticism was the period which talked about love, literature, emotions and all. They were not in favor of the enlightenment period and instead romanticism partially came as a response to the rejection of the enlightenment period.

They rejected the enlightenment period which was based on reasoning and gave reason as the basis for all the things. The romanticists felt that the emotions should be paid more importance to instead of reasoning. There fore they considered science to be harmful for people because it over powered the emotions.
