Explanation:

• Question 1: The "Revolution of 1800" refers to the U.S. presidential election of 1800. In this election, the Federalist Party’s John Adams (the incumbent president) was defeated by Thomas Jefferson of the Democratic - Republican Party. This was a significant transfer of power between political parties in the early U.S. history.
• Question 2: In the period before John Adams (a Federalist) left the presidency (as he was defeated by Thomas Jefferson in the 1800 election), he made a series of last - minute judicial appointments (the so - called “midnight judges”). When Thomas Jefferson took office, his Secretary of State James Madison refused to deliver the commissions for some of these appointments. William Marbury, one of the appointees, sued Madison, leading to the Marbury v. Madison case.

Answer:

• Question 1: First election in which a current president was defeated by another political party’s candidate.
• Question 2: The outgoing president made many judicial appointments just before his term expired.
