Answer:

There are different types of laws. Federal laws apply to everyone in the United States. State and local laws apply to people who live or work in a particular state,​ Federal law is created at the national level, and applies to the entire nation (all 50 states and the District of Columbia), and U.S. territories. The U.S. Constitution forms the basis for federal law; it establishes government power and responsibility, as well as preservation of the basic rights of every citizen.

State law is the law of each separate U.S. state and is applicable in that specific state. The state law applies to residents and visitors of the state, and also to business entities, corporations, or any organizations based or operating in that state.

When a state law is in direct conflict with federal law, the federal law prevails. A state law can afford more rights to its residents than federal law, but is not meant to reduce or restrict the rights of a U.S. citizen.

How did Thomas Edison's invention of the light bulb affect industry?
UNO [17]
The correct answer is <span>A. Electric lights made it possible for factories to run after dark.

The conditions were still dreadful and it didn't reduce accidents. It only made it possible for factories to run after dark which made conditions even worse since people started working for over 12 hours a day in order to keep their jobs since they were easily replaceable in the factories because the jobs were mostly low skilled jobs.</span>

briefly describe 4 reasons why the Spanish conquistadors were able to defeat the aztec and inca empires
Anestetic [448]
1. the conquistadors brought small pox with them and that killed MANY people.
2. they had over 20,000 people in their tribe so it was harder for smaller groups to defeat them.
3. they brought secret weapons such as Bulldogs and cannons and the Aztecs didn't know what those even were.
4. when Hernan Cortez wanted to go to battle with the Aztecs, that time of year for the Aztecs was bad because the aztecs were very religious. At that time their god said that this is not a time for battle. so the Aztecs were unprepared
