Come up with some data (it can be made up by what you think it should be), maybe in a table about that research question mentioned there (Why is it that children of older parents...). You would need to come up with information and data that would help you answer that question. Some things you might want to include are grades in high school, # of discipline issues, # of friends, involvement in sports and extracurricular activities, and anything else. You could make up numbers for a certain # of children who have older parents and those that don't. Include this data in the portfolio. Be sure to calculate the mean, mode median and range of your data.

Federalism

In a unitary state, the central government commonly delegates authority to subnational units and channels policy decisions down to them for implementation. A majority of nation-states are unitary systems. They vary greatly. Great Britain, for example, decentralizes power in practice though not in constitutional principle. Others grant varying degrees of autonomy to subnational units. In France, the classic example of a centralized administrative system, some members of local government are appointed by the central government, whereas others are elected. In the United States, all states have unitary governments with bicameral legislatures (except Nebraska, which has a unicameral legislature). Ultimately, all local governments in a unitary state are subject to a central authority.
