legislative branch is the most powerful.

Answer 2

The correct answer is the legislative branch.

Based on the passage, the branch of the government that has more power in a parliamentary system is the legislative branch.

The passage first makes reference to the presidential democracy. In that government system, the president is an elected figure and the head of the state. In this system, the power he has as the executive branch is balanced with the other two powers, the legislative and the judicial.

But in a parliamentary democracy, it is the legislative branch that selects the Prime Minister of the Nation, who is the head of the state. That is why the branch of the government that has more power in a parliamentary system is the legislative branch.
