Question

Accepted Answer

### Question 8
# Brief Explanations:
The New Jersey Plan was proposed to give each state equal representation in the legislature, regardless of size. Large states favored population - based representation (Virginia Plan), so A is wrong. Population - based representation is what the Virginia Plan favored, so C is wrong. The plan didn't aim to abolish Congress, so D is wrong.
# Answer:
B. Equal representation for states

### Question 9
# Brief Explanations:
The Great Compromise (Connecticut Compromise) created a two - house legislature. One house (House of Representatives) has representation based on population, and the other (Senate) has equal representation for each state. It didn't create one legislative house (A is wrong), equal representation everywhere (B is wrong), and the US has no monarchy (D is wrong).
# Answer:
C. Two - house legislature

### Question 10
# Brief Explanations:
The Three - Fifths Compromise was an agreement that three - fifths of the enslaved population would be counted for purposes of representation and taxation. So A (all), B (half), and D (no) are incorrect.
# Answer:
C. Three - fifths of enslaved people

### Question 11
# Brief Explanations:
In the US government, the judicial branch (courts, led by the Supreme Court) is responsible for interpreting laws. The legislative branch makes laws, the executive branch enforces laws, and there is no Electoral branch for law interpretation.
# Answer:
C. Judicial

### Question 12
# Brief Explanations:

# Answer:

### Question 13
# Brief Explanations:
Supporters of the Constitution were called Federalists. Antifederalists opposed the Constitution, Loyalists were loyal to Britain during the Revolution, and Nationalists is not the term for Constitution supporters.
# Answer:

### Question 14
# Brief Explanations:
Antifederalists were concerned about the strong central government in the Constitution and demanded a Bill of Rights to protect individual liberties. They wanted a weaker central government (so A is wrong), no new monarchy (C is wrong), and two presidents was not their demand (D is wrong).
# Answer:
B. Bill of Rights

### Question 15

The 19th Amendment to the US Constitution gave women the right to vote. The 15th Amendment gave African - American men the right to vote, the 24th abolished poll taxes, and the 26th lowered the voting age to 18.
