Answer: An amendment to the Military Selective Service Act of 1967 established conscription based on random selection (lottery).
Explanation:
On November 26, 1969, President Richard Nixon signed the Selective Service Act of 1948 that instituted conscription based on a lottery system. The Selective Service System of the United States carried two lotteries that same year to decide the order of call to military service in the Vietnam War. It was the first time a lottery system had been used to select troops for military service since 1942.
In 1969, significant changes were made to the draft system in the United States due to opposition and controversy surrounding the Vietnam War.
The draft lottery system was introduced, randomly assigning draft numbers to eligible men based on their birthdates. This replaced the previous practice of selective service and aimed to introduce fairness and reduce bias in the draft process.
Additionally, student deferments, which had previously exempted college students from the draft, were largely ended, subjecting them to potential conscription. These changes were made in response to concerns about the fairness of the draft system and the disproportionate burden on certain segments of the population.

The correct answer is B. The Kashmir region is an area of conflict because of joint claims to territory by several countries.
Kashmir is a region located in the northern part of the Indian subcontinent. Historically, it has been denominated Kashmir to the Valley of Kashmir located to the south of the most western part of the mountain range of the Himalayas.
Kashmir is a disputed area, with a population of approximately 13 million people. When India became independent from the United Kingdom in 1947, its territories of majority Muslim population were segregated in turn to constitute the State of Pakistan. The exception was the principality of Kashmir: to face an internal rebellion, his Maharaja requested help from India, which agreed to it under the condition that the territory became part of its jurisdiction.
The Kashmir valley is relatively low and very fertile, surrounded by large numbers of mountains. It is considered an area of significant natural beauty. The region is currently divided between India, Pakistan and China, being one of the most important international dispute centers of today.
Pakistan controls the northwestern region; India controls the central and southern sectors of the region; while China has occupied the north-eastern region. Within Kashmir, there are sectors that support its independence.

The first alternative is correct (A).
The anti-Federalists defended the decentralization of power.
They were a group that worked on the founding of the US Constitution and actually advocated a Confederative system, which would be an association of sovereign states. However, they were defeated by the Federalists.
The anti-Federalists resisted the concentration of sovereign power in the hands of the Federative State, because it was against what the settlers fought in the Wars of Emancipation, defending, therefore, the autonomy of each state.
