The Bill of Rights eased some Antifederalist concerns about:.a. an overly powerful central government. b. the weakness of government, exemplified by Shays’s Rebellion. c. blurring the political lines between the branches of government. d. conflict between branches of the federal government.

a. an overly powerful central government.

Explanation:

The bills of rights highlights those rights of the Americans to the government. That is the civil rights and liberties of the citizens.

The main purpose of the bills of rights is to protect the rights of the citizens against the infringements of most especially , the public officials.

In this case, the bills of rights relieved the Antifederalists of their concerns because it does not allow an over powerful central government.

One of the examples of rights highlighted in the bills of right is freedom of speech .

It shoul be understood that the Antifederalists always wanted a weaker national government.

the secretary of state, appointed by the president with the advice and consent of the senate, is the president's chief foreign affairs adviser. the secretary carries out the president's foreign policies through the state department and the foreign service of the united states.

the earth’s crust is broken into separate pieces called tectonic plates (fig. 7.14). recall that the crust is the solid, rocky, outer shell of the planet. it is composed of two distinctly different types of material: the less-dense continental crust and the more-dense oceanic crust. both types of crust rest atop solid, upper mantle material. the upper mantle, in turn, floats on a denser layer of lower mantle that is much like thick molten tar.

each tectonic plate is free-floating and can move independently. earthquakes and volcanoes are the direct result of the movement of tectonic plates at fault lines. the term fault is used to describe the boundary between tectonic plates. most of the earthquakes and volcanoes around the pacific ocean basin—a pattern known as the “ring of fire”—are due to the movement of tectonic plates in this region. other observable results of short-term plate movement include the gradual widening of the great rift lakes in eastern africa and the rising of the himalayan mountain range. the motion of plates can be described in four general patterns:

collision: when two continental plates are shoved together

subduction: when one plate plunges beneath another (fig. 7.15)

spreading: when two plates are pushed apart (fig. 7.15)

transform faulting: when two plates slide past each other (fig. 7.15)
