What two elements were added regarding general assembly spending in the 1851 constitution?

  1. Specific appropriation and annual budget

  2. Budget limit and public audit

  3. Specific appropriation and biennial budget

  4. Biennial budget and public audit

The correct answer is: Specific appropriation and biennial budget

The other options are incorrect because they either do not mention specific appropriation, which was one of the elements added, or they do not mention a biennial budget, which was the second element added in the 1851 constitution. Option A mentions an annual budget which was not part of the changes made in the 1851 constitution. Option B mentions a budget limit which was already in place prior to the constitution changes. Option D mentions a public audit which was not part of the changes made in the 1851 constitution. Therefore, option C is the correct answer as it includes both elements that were added in relation to general assembly spending in the 1851 constitution - specific appropriation and biennial budget.
