Let's go through each question and the reasoning behind your answers:
1. When categorizing the Executive Offices of the President, what can you assume when noting the number of departments devoted to administrative services?
Your answer: B. It takes a lot of organizational bureaucracy to keep the White House going
This is a reasonable assumption. The question is asking about the number of departments devoted to administrative services, which implies the need for a significant amount of organizational bureaucracy to manage those services. It is crucial to keep the White House functioning efficiently.
2. How does the President limit the legislative powers of Congress?
Your answer: D. By using the veto
Correct. The President can limit the legislative powers of Congress by vetoing bills that have been passed by both the House of Representatives and the Senate. This is one of the checks and balances established in the Constitution to prevent any one branch of the government from becoming too powerful.
4. What is the role of the president's chief of staff?
Your answer: A. To manage the Executive Office of the President and to advise the President
Correct. The role of the president's chief of staff is to manage the Executive Office of the President and serve as an advisor to the President. They coordinate the White House staff, help prioritize issues, and ensure efficient decision-making.
6. The Executive Office of the President is a bureaucracy. How do formalized rules benefit such a bureaucracy?
Your answer: C. Formalized rules provide a healthy corrective for job specialization
This answer is incorrect. Formalized rules in a bureaucracy like the Executive Office of the President serve to ensure consistency, uniformity, and fairness in decision-making. They also provide a framework for established procedures and guidelines. Option A, "Workers can act with speed and precision because decisions are based on a set of known standards," is the correct answer.
7. Identify a formal way the Constitution checks the president from expanding his power.
Your answer: A. The Supreme Court can find actions unconstitutional
Correct. The Constitution establishes a system of checks and balances. The Supreme Court has the power of judicial review, which allows it to declare actions by the President or other branches of government as unconstitutional. This is one way the Constitution limits the expansion of presidential power.
So, to summarize your answers:
1. B
2. D
4. A
6. C (The correct answer is A)
7. A
You answered 4 out of 5 questions correctly. For question 6, the correct answer is A, not C.
