Answer:

11. During the Constitutional Convention of 1787, the plans for Congress proposed by the delegates from New Jersey and Virginia differed mainly over the issue of established equal representation in the Senate and proportionate representation in the House of Representatives

12. State representation in Congress. Delegates at the Constitutional Convention of 1787 agreed to the Three-fifths Compromise to solve a dispute directly related to "state representation in Congress", since delegates were divided over how the slave population should be counted in Congress.

13. i dont know lol

14. The Constitution states that the reason for the census is to determine how many House of Representative members there will be from each state. Only U.S. citizens can (or are supposed to) vote, therefore, the census is intended to tally the total of U.S. citizens. This is not rocket science.

15. power division

Federalism is the concept of power division: between the central government and the local governments that have some autonomy over their local matters. For example, in the US marriage equality used to be decided on a state level.

Why do crops ripen quickly in Alaska? the days are long the days are short the climate is hot the climate is cold
Andre45 [30]

Answer: the days are long

Explanation:

Alaska experiences some very unusual weather to say the least due to its position so far north of the equator. While some parts of Alaska can go months without seeing the sun, in growing season it is almost the opposite.

During growing season, Alaska experiences very long days with 17 hours of sunlight being in the norm in some areas. This much sunlight is beneficial to plants who take advantage of it and ripen faster so that even though growing season is short in Alaska, they are able to grow quite a significant amount of food.
