Answer 2

Answer:

C. A judicial branch was established to interpret the law.

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation provided for a limited and weak government consisting of a Congress only. The government of the US Constitution, on the other hand, was outlined under the principle of Separation of Power, which divided the government responsibility and authority into three branches: the Judicial Branch, established to interpret the law; the Legislative Branch to make laws, and the Executive Branch, to enforce laws. This separation of power among branches is one of the many advantages that the new Constitution has over the former one because it set the basis for the Checks and Balances system and allow the government to have enough enforcement powers to lead the nation.
