Answer 2

Option D. House of Burgesses

Step-by-step explanation:

The House of Burgesses was the first democratically elected legislative body in the British-American colonies. Its first meeting was held at the Virginia General Assembly at Jamestown in July 1619.

From that point on, each county sent two representatives and elections were held when the governor called them at irregular intervals.
