In a parliamentary system of government, the executive branch is

A.

under the control of the judiciary

B.

combined with the legislative branch

C.

elected through popular votes

D.

separate from the legislative branch

Correct answer is B

In a parliamentary system of government, the executive branch is combined with the legislative branch. This is because the executive, which includes the Prime Minister and the cabinet, is drawn from the members of the legislature. This is different from a presidential system, where the executive and legislative branches are separate.
