A good posture is one that places the least amount of _______ on your muscles and joints

Answers

Answer:

A good posture is one that places the least amount of stress on your muscles and joints

Explanation:

Good posture is a balanced body position, which ensures the effective functioning of the musculoskeletal system. When the muscles and joints are located correctly, it is much easier for a person to perform everyday movements: bend down to take a bag, climb up the stairs, etc.

With insufficient balance, the normal position of the joints (shoulder, knee, ankle and hip) is disturbed. Some muscle groups have to take on overload. Over time, tension arises in these muscles. Others, on the contrary, are weakening. Muscular imbalance develops, which sooner or later develops into poor posture. With a deterioration in posture, the mobility of the joints decreases. Moreover, due to the imbalance between overstressed and weakened muscles, the joints experience a high load, which must be compensated for by something. Pain and stiffness appear; it becomes difficult to perform simple movements. But if a person eliminates this imbalance, the posture will immediately improve (and the pain will disappear).

The Ninth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution is known as the "unenumerated rights" amendment. Whichselection below is an example of those rights?

Select one:

O A. all unenumerated individual rights are ceded to Congress

O B. states have rights of authority over the federal government

O C. stating rights in the Bill of Rights does not mean these are the only rights of citizens

O D. only those rights listed are protected for citizens

Answers

Answer:

C. stating rights in the Bill of Rights does not mean these are the only rights of citizens

Explanation:

The ninth amendment belonged to the Bill of rights. Bill of rights was added to the constitution on December 15, 1791. It states that the rights not mentioned in the constitution belong to the people.

It means that people do have other rights and their rights are not limited to the ones listed in the constitution or we can say that if a list of people's rights is mentioned in the constitution it doesn't mean that the government can take away other rights of the people that are not mentioned in the constitution.

So, people can have more rights than the ones mentioned in the constitution and option (C) is an example of those rights.

What would James Madison say about allowing a person elected to the house of representatives to serve at the same time on the supreme court? Explain his thinking.

Answers

According to James Madison, a same person must never be allowed to be a legislator and a judge at the same time, there has to be a separation of power.

What is meant by the doctrine of Separation of power ?

The doctrine of Separation of powers refers to the division of a state into branches and sub-branches. Each branch having defined, separate, independent powers and responsibilities, such that the powers of one branch are not in conflict with those of the other branches.

Madison proposed and supported the idea of providing the judiciary an active role in legislation. Although, he was worried that judges would never possess the same political advantages and privileges as legislators.

He also believed that the Supreme Court would play a critical role in maintaining the equilibrium of the entire federal system.

In case, a person occupying both judiciary and legislature at the same time could result in tyranny of an individual  or group of individuals, as the judiciary acts as check and balance force in a federal system.

In order to prevent tyranny and monarchy in America, the constitution provided a set of checks and balances to ensure that one branch of the government could not rule by itself.  A person serving as both a representative in the house and a member of the supreme court would be working for two of the three branches of the government (legislative and judicial).  If one person were allowed to serve for both, they might influence others in both branches to side with them or to further their own political agenda and with support of two of the branches, such a person might become a threat to the system.
