Sure! Let's go through each question and check your answers.
Question 1: Why did the Great Compromise establish a two-house legislature?
The correct answer is A: to fairly represent all states.
Explanation: The Great Compromise, also known as the Connecticut Compromise, was reached during the Constitutional Convention of 1787. It settled the dispute between large and small states regarding representation in the legislature. The compromise established a two-house legislature known as the Congress. The lower house, the House of Representatives, would be based on population, ensuring that larger states had more representation. The upper house, the Senate, would provide equal representation for each state, regardless of its population. This compromise was made to create a fair system that represented both the interests of larger states and the concerns of smaller states.
So, your answer A is correct.
Question 2: How did the structure of the Virginia House of Burgesses influence the governments of the states and the national government created by the US Constitution?
The correct answer is A: it established an elected representative legislature.
Explanation: The Virginia House of Burgesses was the first elected representative assembly in colonial America. It was established in 1619 as part of Virginia's colonial government. The structure of the House of Burgesses, with elected representatives making laws on behalf of the people, influenced the development of representative government in the colonies.
When it came time to create a new national government under the US Constitution, the idea of elected representatives making laws remained influential. The US Constitution established a bicameral legislature, with the House of Representatives and the Senate reflecting a similar structure to that of the Virginia House of Burgesses. The House of Representatives, directly elected by the people, represented their voices and concerns, while the Senate provided equal representation for each state, similar to the upper house in the Virginia House of Burgesses.
So, your answer A is correct.
Question 3: What were the major viewpoints of the Anti-Federalists in the Federalist debate over the US Constitution?
The correct answers are B: they believed that the Constitution gave the president too much power and C: they believed that states should have more power.
Explanation: The Anti-Federalists were a group of individuals who opposed the ratification of the US Constitution. They were concerned that the Constitution placed too much power in the central government and did not provide enough protection for individual rights or the powers of the states.
The Anti-Federalists argued that the Constitution, as written, lacked specific protections for individual liberties, such as a Bill of Rights. They also believed that the central government created by the Constitution would be too powerful and would encroach on the rights and powers of the states. They advocated for a weaker central government and a stronger role for the states in the governance of the country.
So, your answers B and C are correct.
