Which of the following scenarios BEST illustrates the concept of limited government?

b. The Supreme Court ruled that a law passed by Congress was unconstitutional

Explanation:

The Principle of Separation of Powers in the US Government is the cause of limited government.

Separation of powers amongst the 3 branches of Government being the Legislative, Executive and the Judiciary means that no one branch has unlimited powers in running the Government as the powers of the other branches can put a check on the other thereby leading to a state of limited government for all 3 branches.

An instance of this is when Congress (Legislative), acting within their mandate, create and pass a law but this law is declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court (Judiciary) who are there to ensure that the nation abides by the constitution.

“i think it is very plausible that if there are five votes to end the death penalty, it could be with the people who are on the court right now,” - smith

so basically it is not clearly and consistently imposed

biological/genetic factors means they were born or predisposed to have something. nothing can really change it, and you can't really do much to "fix" it. it isn't something learned

these are the biological factors:

adrian is relatively tall and he is on the basketball team

(adrian can't ever stop being tall or force himself to be tall. likely one or both of his parents are tall as well and they passed on the tall gene. he probably does basketball because he is tall)

the rest are environmental/cultural factors. these are things that are taught to us. for example, cynthia wasn't born saving pocket money, her family most likely taught her this (environmental factor)

hope this !
