Correct answer choice for question 1 is :


A) Commission


Step-by-step explanation:


City commission management is a structure of local government in the United States. In a city commission government, citizens choose a small commission, typically of five to seven members, on a plurality-at-large voting base. This kind of government thus combines congressional and administrative department duties in the same body.

Correct answer choice for question 2 is :


B) Are much longer.


Step-by-step explanation:


The Constitution of the United States set America's federal government and primary laws and assured some fundamental rights for its residents. It was signed on September 17, 1787, by members to the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia. To date, there are 27 constitutional reforms. In the United States, each state has its own law. Usually, they are much longer than the United States Constitution, which only includes 4,543 words. State constitutions are normally longer than 8,500-words because they are more accurate about the day-to-day relations among government and the people.
