Are my answers correct? (I put a star by my answers)

Three of your answers are correct.

Yes, your answers are correct. The Magna Carta did indeed lay the foundation for a written social contract between the government and the people, protecting the rights and property of free men. It also limited the king's power to tax without the consent of his free subjects and introduced a balance of power between the king and his people. However, it did not establish a bicameral legislature, so your response of "False" is correct. Well done!
