Ariel Pratt · Answer 1

D) The vice president succeeds a president who dies in office.

Explanation:

The Twenty-Fifth Amendment talks about how the succession of the president of the United States should occur, also establishes the procedures to be followed to fill the position of vice president when this position is available, also describes what should be done when the president is disabled to continue in his position.

Sydney Wagner · Answer 2

The correct answer is: D) The vice president succeeds a president who dies in office.

Prior to the 25th Amendment, the Vice President merely would assume the powers and duties of the Presidency.

This clarifies that the Vice President becomes President.
