Answer:

The correct answer is A. A big lighthouse.

Explanation:

The Pharos in Alexandria is widely regarded as one of the Seven Classic Wonders of the World. The tower bore the same name as the small island off the coast of Alexandria on which it was built.  It was the first lighthouse ever built, between 297 and 283 BC, and served for almost 1500 years successively for the Greeks, Romans, Byzantines and Arabs.  According to Arab and European travel accounts, the lighthouse was in service until about 1375 when a severe earthquake plunged the top half of the light installation into the sea. After that, the tower was not repaired. By the 15th century it had fallen into ruin. The remaining first floor was incorporated in the 16th century in a fort that still stands on Pharos today.

What are the three parts of the executive branch?
Greeley [361]

The three parts of the executive power are: the President, who is the head of the government as well as the armed forces. According to the constitution he is the guarantor of the application of the laws. Among its executive powers, it can enact executive orders, which have legal validity for federal bodies. The Vice President is the second office of the government and in case of death, resignation, destruction or serious impediments takes the place of the President. This fact has happened only nine times in American history. He is the president of the Senate and has the power to resolve any disputes with his vote. The Cabinet of Government is made up of 15 departments nominated by the President and the Senate which must be confirmed and / or rejected by a simple majority vote. The members of the Cabinet are responsible for directing departments (also called ministries) including those of Justice and the Department of Defense.

The president who used the slogan "The dollar stops here" is Harry S.Truman. Truman was born in 1884 and died in 1972 and was both vice president and 33 president of the United States of America from 1945 to 1953 under the Democratic party. Truman remembers especially for the atomic bombing on Hiroshima and Nagasaki at the end of the 2nd world war, the cold war with Russia and the Korean war, and the war in Vietnam.

The saying "the dollar stops here" comes from the slang expression "pass the time", meaning how to pass the responsibility. President Truman understood it as "the decision must be taken" in the sense that nothing but the president (whoever he is) must make the decisions! So this slogan symbolizes the heavy responsibility that weighs on the shoulders of the President and by extension of all those people who have executive power in the nation.

Why did the colonists criticize the Stamp Acts as "taxation without representation"?
nasty-shy [4]
The colonists criticized the Stamp Acts as "taxation without representation", because the colonists did not have consent over this form of taxation imposed on them. It was a decision made in the British Parliament without anyone representing the colonies when this decision was upheld.
