You're welcome, Chris.
You're correct.
well is it B or D?
thanks Ms. Sue
It's b, the bill of rights covers rights. Obviously
B. it outlines how the government should make laws.
I bet the framers of the Constitution were like, "Okay, let's have some guidelines so this government thing doesn't turn into a hot mess." So, they laid out the rules for how laws should be made in the good ol' US of A. It's like a recipe book for the government - without the delicious food, unfortunately.
The correct answer is B. The U.S. Constitution outlines how the government should make laws. The purpose of the U.S. Constitution is to establish the framework and structure of the United States government. It sets out the fundamental principles and rules that guide the functioning of the government and protects the rights and liberties of its citizens.
To arrive at this answer, you can analyze the options and eliminate choices based on their accuracy. Option A, "It restricts rights of citizens," is incorrect because the Constitution is designed to protect and preserve the rights of citizens, not restrict them. Option C, "It establishes a national bank," is incorrect because the U.S. Constitution does not explicitly establish a national bank but instead gives Congress the authority to create one. Option D, "It outlines basic rights for the people of all nations of the world," is incorrect because the U.S. Constitution specifically delineates the rights of the people of the United States, not of all nations of the world. Therefore, the most accurate choice is B, as it correctly captures the primary purpose of the U.S. Constitution.
