Which of the following could have averted the disaster

japan relies heavily on nuclear meltdown at some of its nuclear power: however, in 2011 japan experienced a nuclear meltdown at some of its nuclear power plants. when the reactors detected an earthquake, emergency generators pumped water to cool the fuel rods, but subsequent tsunami flooding caused the generators to fail which caused radiation to enter the atmosphere.

a. tougher flooding safety measures
b. eliminating the emergency generators
c. less government involvement
d. looser regulations fi=or the power industry

With the presence of tougher flooding safety measure, the disaster caused by Tsunami in 2011 in Japan could have been averted.

Option A

Explanation:

The Nuclear Power Station was attacked by the fierce force of Tsunami on 11 March 2011 and caused the worst nuclear disaster. A vast land of Japan was evacuated and needed years of cleaning to get rid of the nuclear radiation.

With clear, researches, it resulted that the prime cause of nuclear disaster by the influence of Tsunami was the lack of potential safety to the nuclear power plants. The Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency of Japan was held responsible for such a lack of system and the safety measures were secured for future.

The 10th amendment states:

"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people"

So basically the constitution lays out a list of powers that the federal government has (eg: the power to mint money). Any power not listed in the constitution is then given to the states, as long as that rule doesn't violate a power granted to the federal government.

Nowhere in the constitution does it mention anything about education standards, so it is up to the states to decide what schools should cover, and by what time schedule. And this power to the states is granted explicitly in the 10th amendment of the constitution.
