Answer:

C. Citizens have the power to elect the legislature but not the Prime Minister.

Step-by-step explanation:

The United Kingdom follows a "constitutional monarchy" when it comes to its government. It follows a parliamentary system whereby the "Prime Minister" is not directly elected by the people. Rather, the people have the power to elect the members of the legislatures/members of the parliament. The King and the Queen of the country act as symbols while the Prime Minister does the governance.
