The US Constitution allowed for eight state to have an equal vote in Congress, regardless of size or population.C. The US Constitution separated powers between the judicial legislative and executive branches d. The US Constitution had only one branch.A unicameral legislature that had limited power

Answer 1

C. The US Constitution separated powers between the judicial, legislative, and executive branches.

The correct answer is C. The US Constitution separated powers between the judicial, legislative, and executive branches.

The Articles of Confederation, which was the first form of government for the newly independent United States, had a unicameral legislature with limited power. It did not establish a separate judicial branch, and the executive power was held by a committee rather than a single executive.

The US Constitution, on the other hand, established a system of checks and balances by separating powers between the three branches of government. It created a bicameral legislature, with the House of Representatives based on population and the Senate giving each state an equal vote.
