How did state constitutions lay the groundwork for the u. s. constitution?

The Constitution of USA came first before the state constitution. The US Constitution can limit the powers for the state.

Further explanation:

Any amendment to the US Constitution have to be initiated by Congress, the two third of both the houses must approve the amendments and 3/4th of the states have to ratify it. Article 5 of the Constitution allowed for the 34state legislature to petition the Congress for constitutional convention. Any other type of potential amendments arising from the convention have to face 3/4th of the states. Though this convention has never been used but state legislatures can lay the foundation and also ground rules to use this convention , if were called upon so. Originally it was known as Mount Vernon  Assembly, but now it is called assembling of state legislatures. The group have more than hundred legislators from the 31 states. Mostly the group consist of Republicans and there are only six Democrats. Senator Davis long said that the lack a framework for the convention has fed into the mystique and it is running out of control. It is very important that we should establish it how it is going to be run. There is a need to talk about the substance of the issues and the policies made.

question - in 1827, john walker, a druggist in a small english town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. the druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. it is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. although walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. it could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. in a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. the match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. it would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. this was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar. according the paragraph what was the benefit of the new phosphorus match? it burst into flame when rubbed on sandpaper. it was made by mixing chemicals. it could be ignited on any dry surface. it threw fire in all directions.
