1.

Ghana uses Unitary constitution
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Ghana uses a unitary constitution, which means that power is concentrated in a central government and there is no division of powers between different levels of government. In a unitary system, the central government has the authority to make decisions and laws that apply to the entire country, and it can also delegate some powers to local governments but can also take them back if needed. This is in contrast to a federal system where power is divided between a central government and regional or state governments.

  True

The United States of America does not use a unitary constitution.

Therefore, the correct answer is false.

Another name for Federal Constitution is________

Correct Answer
Unwritten Constitution

Explanation
The Federal Constitution is also known as the Unwritten Constitution. This term refers to a system of government where the fundamental principles and rules are not explicitly written down in a single document, but are derived from a combination of statutes, case law, conventions, and traditions. Unlike a written constitution, an unwritten constitution evolves over time and can be flexible in adapting to changing circumstances. The term "Unwritten Constitution" is commonly used to describe the constitutional framework of countries like the United Kingdom.
