Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: USA
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:This is an institution-to-country mapping. “Parliament” denotes the legislature of Great Britain (UK). We must match “Congress” to the country for which it is the national legislature.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:Identify the canonical name of the legislative branch for each country and pair “Congress” accordingly. In the USA, the bicameral national legislature is called “Congress” (Senate + House of Representatives).
Step-by-Step Solution:
1) Extract mapping in the stem: Parliament → Great Britain. 2) Recall that the USA's federal legislature is Congress. 3) Select USA to preserve the same institution:country relation.Verification / Alternative check:Cross-check other options’ legislative names: Japan (National Diet), India (Parliament), Netherlands (States General). None equals “Congress”.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Common Pitfalls:Assuming “Congress” is a generic term used by many countries; in this specific national sense, it identifies the U.S. legislature.
Final Answer:USA
