Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

21. Members of Congress in both houses are elected by direct popular vote.

22. Well this depends. If you're talking about the entire New York State, 100. If you're talking about one state, 2.

23. Six Years

24. There are currently 435 voting representatives. Five delegates and one resident commissioner serve as non-voting members of the House, although they can vote in committee. Representatives must be 25 years old and must have been U.S. citizens for at least 7 years. Representatives serve 2-year terms.

25. The excecutive carries out and enforces law.

26. The Judicial part of our federal government includes the Supreme Court and 9 Justices. They are special judges who interpret laws according to the Constitution. These justices only hear cases that pertain to issues related to the Constitution. They are the highest court in our country.

27. As the final arbiter of the law, the Court is charged with ensuring the American people the promise of equal justice under law and, thereby, also functions as guardian and interpreter of the Constitution.

28. Patrick Henry

29. The Constitution prescribes that the Senate be composed of two senators from each State (therefore, the Senate currently has 100 Members) and that a senator must be at least thirty years of age, have been a citizen of the United States for nine years, and, when elected, be a resident of the State.

30. The President

31. 9 Justices

32. In search of religious freedom.

33. Thanksgiving

34. Thomas Jefferson

35. August 2, 1776

36. Star Spangled Banner. (If you want the lyrics, look them up!)
