Answer to Question 1

An ideal response will:
1, Note that it is not uncommon for a department or agency to act contrary to goals or objectives of the president.
2, Identify the president's authority with respect to the Cabinet secretary: the president can appoint Cabinet secretaries and dismiss them if they are not fulfilling the president's goals.
3, Identify the president's authority with respect to agency budgets: all agency budget proposals must be submitted through the Office of Management and Budget. If an agency is not performing as expected, a president can threaten to cut the agency's budget.
4, Identify the president's authority to issue executive orders that directly impact departments and agencies. These orders carry the force of law.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
