Explanation:

• Question 10: In Texas v. Johnson, the Supreme Court ruled that burning the U.S. flag is protected as free speech under the First Amendment. Miranda v. Arizona dealt with criminal procedure (Miranda rights). Engel v. Vitale was about school - sponsored prayer. Brown v. Board of Education was about racial segregation in schools.
• Question 11: The Preamble of the U.S. Constitution states purposes such as "to provide for the common defense". The U.S. is not a monarchy, the President does not have unlimited power, and state governments are not eliminated (federalism).
• Question 12: The three branches of the U.S. government are Executive (President), Legislative (Congress), and Judicial (Courts). Military is not a branch, "Military, Congress, and Courts" is incorrect. "President, Senate, and Supreme Court" is too narrow (Senate is part of Congress). "State, Local, and National" refers to levels of government, not branches.

Answer:

1. Texas v. Johnson
