Texas Executive Branch Texas Executive Branch Assignment The governor of Texas is considered relatively weak by national standards. Texas has a plural executive, meaning voters elect a lot of the executive branch officials (comptroller, agriculture commissioner, land commissioner, lieutenant governor, attorney general, etc.) independently. The governor, therefore, has little control over the executive branch of state government, since the guys who run it mostly don′t report to him – they answer only to the voters. One area where the governor holds real power, though, is in the legislative process. The Texas Constitution allows the governor to call the state legislature into special session and gives him the sole power to set the session′s agenda. Bills on subjects not included in the governor′s ″call″ cannot be considered. The Constitution also allows the governor the power to veto bills passed by the legislature. While the legislature technically has the power to override his veto with a 2/3 vote, he generally vetoes bills after the legislature has adjourned – making the threat of an override meaningless.

Egyptian economy There is a strict environmental policy in Egypt. It is governed by the law number 4, which was passed in 1994. It is illegal to handle any hazardous material or the establishment of any plant that either manufactures or treats such substances. The measure makes many investors, such as those who would have made industries such as those involved in the manufacture of chemicals such as sulphuric acid. It also requires that some of the people who import such products have licenses. The policy also falls under the weapons policy. The main argument s that the chemicals may be used in the interference of security. Some of the attacks have been made by groups that dealt with such chemicals. In some cases, when they are not involved, they are hijacked by militia and the products used in attacks. The industrial sector is also not allowed to leak any wastes to the environment. If they do so, they are subject to the revocation of licenses. Foreign investors are also bound to be banished from the company. In addition to…

Student’s Name Professor’s Name Course Date Summary and reflection on North America Part 1 This section highlights key issues that have been discovered in North America. First and foremost, the uneven distribution of natural resources. North America is formed by the Caribbean, Central America, and North America itself. That is geographically they form the continent North America. The continent of North America does not produce enough oil to serve the whole continent, thus depend on imports. The United States has been ranked among the top producers and consumers of oil. Since they still import oil means that they consume more than they produce. This trend is likely to impose dangers on the environment if other forms of energy are not resorted to. Secondly, there is increased deforestation, pollution and the reduction of freshwaters. All the factors herein may affect ecological balance. In studying this, important topics of how dams can destroy estuaries, and the harmful effects of over-pumping water bodies were covered. Pollution is a significant threat to the environment. These issues can be further broken down into air and…

The Neolithic The first agricultural revolution, or commonly known as the Neolithic Revolution, marked the beginning of an extensive scale migration of humans from hunting and gathering to that of settlement and agriculture. Human beings began evolving and behaving differently than in the past. Rather than depending on food gathering, humans began developing new technologies to produce food. About 10,000BC, humans began forming agricultural villages. According to Freeman (2019), these villages revolutionized the social sphere of the people in the past, causing them to depart from the former systems and ways of life. The new farming technology allowed people to live in concentrated and more permanent residence. Not everyone had to spend their whole time devoted to food production. The society was opening up for more responsibilities that needed more people to engage in. The food produced was distributed among members, and the rest went to the farmers. Further, the new technological systems of farming allowed people to live together as a community. The communities became reproductive not only in agriculture but also in arts and creativity. Through technology, people…
