Which statement best explains how the constitution addressed a weakness
in the articles of confederation?
o
a. congress couldn't pass laws because state representatives did
not always attend congressional sessions, so the constitution
made it a crime for legislators to skip sessions of congress.
o
b. the president was only a ceremonial leader who had little real
power, so the constitution gave the president the authority to pass
laws and declare war.
o
c. states caused economic chaos by making independent trade
agreements with foreign countries, so the constitution gave the
federal government the power to regulate trade and foreign policy.
o
d. state militaries were more powerful than the federal army, so the
constitution required each state to send a percentage of its
population to defend the country.
