c.

d.

c. only a legislative branch, consisting of a unicameral Congress.
The correct answer to the question is c) only a legislative branch, consisting of a unicameral Congress.
To arrive at this answer, you can break down the options and analyze each one:
a) The statement that the government set up by the Articles of Confederation had no legislative or judicial branch is incorrect. The Articles of Confederation did establish a legislative branch, which was the Congress.
b) The statement that the government set up by the Articles of Confederation had only a legislative and an executive branch is incorrect. The Articles of Confederation did not create a separate executive branch. The Congress itself had some executive functions, but there was no distinct branch dedicated solely to executive tasks.
c) The statement that the government set up by the Articles of Confederation had only a legislative branch consisting of a unicameral Congress is correct. The Congress established under the Articles of Confederation was unicameral, meaning it consisted of a single chamber.
d) The statement that the government set up by the Articles of Confederation had only a legislative branch consisting of a bicameral Congress is incorrect. A bicameral Congress refers to a legislative body with two chambers or houses, such as the United States Congress today. However, under the Articles of Confederation, the Congress was not bicameral, but rather unicameral.
Therefore, the correct answer is c) only a legislative branch, consisting of a unicameral Congress.
