Answer 1

A formed an alliance with Engalnd's traditional enemies, France and Spain

Answer 2

D. dissolved Parliament when members refused to give him funds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The British Parliament gained a lot of importance and power during the reign of James I, but when Charles I reached power he did not agree with that. He was still a believer that kings had a divine rule and that he should not bound to the Parliament.

Charles I wanted to collect customs duties without the Parliament’s permission, the Parliament said that he could not do that, so he dismissed the Parliament in 1611.
