Why do you suppose it was necessary, as part of the Missouri Compromise, to allow both Maine and Missouri to become states at the same time? 1. It allowed the United States to gain strategic coastal land (Maine) and natural resources (Missouri) for the common defense against foreign invasion.
2. It allowed Maine, which was much smaller, to have all of the rights and privileges of Missouri without taxing its existing structure.
3. It maintained a balance of power between the Southern tier of states that legally practiced slavery and those in the North that prohibited the practice.
4. It saved Congress money and time; by admitting two states under a single bill the process was less expensive and required less debate.

the fourth amendment protects:

"the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."  

so this would mean the denial to search and seizure without warrant or permission.

the answer might be either a or c. can't be too sure , because i searched the web, but no valid answers came through.

i disagree that there is little difference between adult female development and adult male development. sociological studies comparing female and male pathways to adulthood, revelead that there are sustancial differences between them. particularly, female and male differ from timing of marriage, when they began to live with children and the likelihood of combining wife/husband and parent roles.
