How is having the power of veto an example of checks and balances? *
Darina [25.2K]

Hope this helps

The veto allows the President to “check” the legislature by reviewing acts passed by Congress and blocking measures he finds unconstitutional, unjust, or unwise. Congress's power to override the President's veto forms a “balance” between the branches on the lawmaking power.

Delvig [45]

The correct answer is D. The president pro tempore of the Senate is the senior senator of the majority party.

The president pro tempore of the United States Senate is the second most important position in the Senate and the highest position as senator. It is established by Article One of the Constitution of the United States. The Vice President of the United States is the President of the Senate, this being the highest position of a member of the Senate; during his absence, the President pro tempore chairs the Senate. The President pro tempore is elected by the Senate; by custom it is, typically, the Senior Senator of the Party with a majority in the Senate. The President pro tempore is the fourth person in succession to the President of the United States, after the Vice President of the United States and the President of the House of Representatives of the United States.

According to this account, what happened in the battle?
kaheart [24]

The correct answer is A. The British soldiers panicked when they were shot at.

Explanation:

The excerpt presented describes a battle fought by the British forces against the French and Indians. About this, the author, who belongs to the British side (you can know this because the author uses "they" to refer to the French and Indians), describes the French and Indians number was not known "the Number of each not known", and they were located in a hill "possessed the Sides and Brow of a Hill".

Moreover, the author states the French and Indians began to shot "some of them fired", and this led to a general panic in the British side "this immediately struck a general Pannic; the Men could not be persuaded to form regularly." Thus, in this battle, the British soldiers panicked when they were shot at.
