I’m fairly certain it is C. Separation of power, as the president needs the advise and **consent** of the people listed above.
The patron of the painting where a man is holding a large medal and wearing a ring is most likely C. the rich merchant in the painting.
<h3>Who would be the patron of this painting?</h3>
The painting shows a man who is showing off his medal and ring which is a sign of him being part of the upper class.
This means that it is the man himself who most likely asked for the painting to be made to showcase his class. Seeing as merchants were quite wealthy at the time, he was most probably a merchant as well.

Answer:
they need to be willing and intend it
The "Mandate of Heaven" is an ancient Chinese philosophical concept, which originated during the Zhou Dynasty (1046-256 BCE). The Mandate determines whether an emperor of China is sufficiently virtuous to rule; if he does not fulfill his obligations as emperor, then he loses the Mandate and thus the right to be emperor.There are four principles to the Mandate:
1) Heaven grants the emperor the right to rule,
2) Since there is only one Heaven, there can only be one emperor at any given time,
3) The emperor's virtue determines his right to rule, and,
4) No one dynasty has a permanent right to rule.
Hope this helps!
