Question Which of the following are examples of increased centralization of power? Select all that apply. (1 point) Responses the Commerce Clause the Commerce Clause the Comity Clause the Comity Clause the Due Process Clause the Due Process Clause the Incorporation Doctrine the Incorporation Doctrine the Nullification Doctrine

Answer 1

The examples of increased centralization of power from the options provided are:

• the Commerce Clause
• the Incorporation Doctrine

These two concepts have historically contributed to increasing federal power over the states. The Commerce Clause allows Congress to regulate interstate commerce and has been broadly interpreted to expand federal authority. The Incorporation Doctrine, through the Fourteenth Amendment, applies Bill of Rights protections to state laws, further increasing federal oversight.

The Comity Clause and the Due Process Clause do not primarily exemplify centralization of power in the same way. The Nullification Doctrine, on the other hand, is associated with states' rights and resistance to federal authority, not centralization.
