Question

Read this passage:

Answer 1

The correct answer is "D".

The Royal family has power over its population, as it has the ability to influence them due to their legitimacy, which is the recognition of them as rulers by the population. On the other hand, They lack authority, as they don't have the administrative ability to manage the nation's domestic or foreign affairs.

Answer 2

I would go with B. Authority is based on respect and precedence, but they don't actually have the power to use it.
