Question 10

John Marshall, as Chief Justice, made decisions (like in cases such as McCulloch v. Maryland, Gibbons v. Ogden) that expanded the power of the federal government relative to state governments. So his decisions strengthened the federal government over the states.

In the 1824 election, no candidate got a majority in the Electoral College. The House of Representatives decided the election, and John Quincy Adams became President, with the "corrupt bargain" allegation involving Henry Clay's support for Adams.

The Indian Removal Act of 1830 (note: the year in the question might be a typo, it's 1830) was intended to relocate Native American tribes from their lands in the Southeast to areas west of the Mississippi River, mainly to open up their lands for white settlement.

Answer:

A. They strengthened the federal government over the states
