Since your first answer is wrong, I suggest you go back and study your text to find the correct answers.

1. The correct answer is E. Republic. The form of government that most clearly bases power on the consent of the governed is a republic, where representatives are chosen by the people to make decisions on their behalf. To arrive at this answer independently, you could evaluate each form of government and determine which one involves the most direct participation or input from the governed.
2. The correct answer is B. Desire of the population for large-scale economic control. All the other factors listed contribute to the expansion of democratic government. To determine this answer yourself, you would need to consider each factor and assess its relationship to the expansion of democratic government.
3. The correct answer is E. Passage of a bill by a vote of 50 percent plus 1. This reflects the principle of simple majority rule, as a bill is passed when it receives a majority vote, which in this case is more than 50% of the votes. To determine this answer independently, consider each option and assess how it relates to the principle of simple majority rule.
