judicial review is the:

• supreme court’s right to have the final say on constitutionality.
• method used to settle tied elections.
• system of funding the american court system.right of state courts to have the final say on federal laws.
• right of state courts to have the final say on federal laws.

Explanation:

Question 43

The four acts passed in 1798 that restricted speech and foreign residents' liberties are the Alien and Sedition Acts. The Espionage Acts were during WWI, High Federalist Acts is not the collective name, and the Bill of Rights is the first ten amendments (ratified 1791, not 1798).

Judicial review is the power of the Supreme Court (and courts) to declare laws/acts unconstitutional, so it's the Supreme Court’s right to have the final say on constitutionality. The other options are incorrect: tied elections are settled by other means, it's not about funding, and state courts don't have final say on federal laws.

Answer:

A. Alien and Sedition Acts
