Answer 1

ANSWER: The Antifederalists objected mostly to the unusual and unchecked concentration of power lodged in the central government. They specifically objected to the indirect representation of voters, both by the executive and the Congress. They were also troubled by the sheer size of the new republic and the dangers of self-interested factionalism replacing civic virtue and responsibility.

Answer 2

ANSWER: Students should immediately point out that the Revolution itself produced a more democratic society. Because historical conditions and legacies differed from state to state, the degree to which state constitutions affected the growth of American democracy varied. For example, Pennsylvania's constitution eliminated property ownership as a requirement to obtain the franchise, while most states ratified constitutions that provided for a separation of powers and limited the right to vote to property owners.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
