C is the right answer.
THANK YOU:))))))
You're welcome.
The correct answer is C) state conventions.
Now, let's understand how we can arrive at this answer by using a step-by-step process:
1. Begin by understanding what "ratification" means. Ratification refers to the formal approval or acceptance of a document or agreement.
2. Next, identify the document in question. In this case, it is the Constitution.
3. Explore the different entities that possess the power of ratification. In the context of the United States Constitution, it was ratified by various entities.
4. One option is the Continental Congress (D) which could be a possibility. However, it is important to note that the Constitution was not ratified by the Continental Congress.
5. Therefore, we can now eliminate option D as incorrect.
6. Another possibility is the state legislatures (B), as they are responsible for making laws within their respective states. While state legislatures played a role in the process, they did not ratify the Constitution themselves.
7. Finally, this leads us to option C, state conventions. These conventions were held in each state to discuss and deliberate upon the proposed Constitution. Ultimately, it was through these state conventions that the Constitution was ratified.
8. As a result, the correct answer is C) state conventions.
