The correct answer is bilateral (D).
<em>A bilateral system</em> means a government with two legislative houses.The federal government in the USA uses the bilateral system and so do all the states with the exception of Nebraska. The bicameral system in the U.S consists of: The House of Representatives and the Senate. Each house has different requirements to serve and each house has unique powers.
The correct answer is checks, balances (C).
<em>Checks and balances </em>are a tool used in a political system to decrease the risk of centralization of power. They ensure that no one person or department has an absolute control over decisions. Checks and balances create separation of powers. In the U. S. checks and balances are exercised through its three branches of government: the legislative, the executive and the judicial. Each branch has special abilities. The legislative branch makes the laws but the executive branch gives the veto power to the president to veto these laws if necessary. The judicial branch may deem certain laws unconstitutional thus making them void.
The Latin American revolutions from 1804 to 1821 were generally all "wars for independence", primarily in French, Spanish and Portuguese colonies. They were heavily influenced by the American and French revolutions. <span />
The population of native Latin Americans decreased during the age of exploration and with colonization because of the diseases that conquistadors and colonizers brought that Latin Americans did not have any previous exposure to (no immunity so died from the diseases). The colonizors had used native populations for labor so when they died, they needed a new form of labor. They brought Africans to latin america and enslaved them for their labor. This bringing of slaves over created the transatlantic slave trade (depicted in the pictures, transatlantic bc they were shipping over the atlantic ocean) and also created the diaspora of african culture and religions to latin america (this is found most in the carribean).
