Answer to Question 1

Democracy is a political system in which the people hold the ruling power either

directly or through elected representatives. Direct participatory democracy requires

that citizens be able to meet together regularly to debate and decide the issues of the

day. In the United States, people have a voice in the government through

representative democracy, whereby citizens elect representatives to serve as bridges

between themselves and the government. In a representative democracy, elected

representatives are supposed to convey the concerns and interests of those they

represent, and the government is expected to be responsive to the wishes of the

people.

Answer to Question 2

True

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.

Did you know?

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
