Answer:

The correct answer is: governing authority is derived from the consent of the governed.

Explanation:

The United States Constitution, which was created originally in 1787, but was ratified in 1789, is the supreme law that leads all aspects of government within the United States. Aside from the purpose of establishing the division of powers, the Constitution also established the framework and guidelines for the correct management of power by the government. Another important purpose of the Constitution, particularly through its wording, was to establish that all these laws, and regulations, were valid not because of the power of the government, but because the people who accepted them gave them the power necessary to become law. By opening the Constitution with "We, the people..." the document is clearly stating that anything and everything under this supreme law, is possible only because the governed accept it and consent to it. This is why the correct answer is the first one.
