• The Constitution gave more power to the states.
• The Constitution provided a more centralized government.
• All enslaved African Americans would be counted in the population.
• The judicial branch would have the power to pass laws.

Answer 1

The correct answer is: The Constitution provided a more centralized government.

This change was made to address the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation, which created a loose confederation of states with a weak central government. The Constitution established a stronger federal government with greater powers to regulate commerce, tax, and maintain order.
