The correct answer is A) Power that is recognized as legitimate

Authority is the power that is recognized as legitimate.

It is the right to give orders and enforce them. It is the faculty to make decisions and enforce action. Authority can be exerted by the people who have gained the right to do so. Legitimately. If that is not the case, then authority turns into tyranny that oppresses. A leader always has to exert its authority by example, not by coercion.

First you have to understand what happened in March 5, 1770 a British soldier got in an argument with a colonist then the soldier struck him, people started to gather and then yell at the soldier call him names and then they started taunting him then other soldiers started shotting people in the crowd instantly 3 people died including a salior Crispus Attucks then two days later 2 more people die. My opinion on the topic is it was sad and tragic that it was all because of an argument that got five people shot and killed.
