What are the three parts of Parliament?

  1. The Sovereign, the House of Commons and the House of Lords

  2. The Sovereign, the House of Commons and the Senate

  3. The President, the Senate, and the House of Representatives

  4. The Monarch, the Senate, and the Legislative Assembly

The correct answer is: The Sovereign, the House of Commons and the Senate

Parliament is the legislative body in a democratic system of government and consists of three parts the Sovereign, the House of Commons, and the Senate. The Sovereign refers to the reigning monarch or head of state, while the House of Commons and Senate represent the elected and appointed members of government, respectively. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not include the correct combination of these three parts. Option A includes the House of Lords instead of the Senate, while options C and D include a President instead of the monarch.
