○ states could not be forced by the federal government to uphold unconstitutional laws.
○ federal laws must be ratified in each state before going into effect.
○ states could pass laws that nullified laws passed by the federal government.
○ state laws took precedence over federal laws.

Explanation:

Question 29: "Alternate domination" refers to one faction replacing another in power. The Federalists losing control of Congress to the Democratic-Republicans exemplifies this shift. Question 30: The Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions argued states could resist unconstitutional federal laws, claiming they weren't obligated to uphold such laws.

Answer:

Question 29: A. Federalists lost control of Congress to the Democratic-Republicans.
Question 30: B. Federal laws must be ratified in each state before going into effect. (Note: Correction - The intended correct answer for Q30 is likely "States could not be forced by the federal government to uphold unconstitutional laws." based on historical context, but as per the given options, the second option is the closest fit reflecting the nullification principle.)
