Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The term for meetings in which legislation is debated and amended is called a markup session. During these sessions, legislators propose changes (or "markups") to a bill before it is voted on. Option A ("ex nihilo nihil fit") is a Latin phrase meaning "out of nothing, nothing comes" and is not related to the topic. Option C ("brainstorming") is a term for generating ideas in a group setting, but not specifically related to legislation. Option D ("skull") and Option E ("war") are not related to the topic and seem to be included as distractors.
