Answer 2

The correct answer is A. The assembly served as a model for other colonial legislatures.

Explanation:

The Virginia House of Burgesses was a government institution in Virginia from 1619 to 1776. In this, the colonies elected representatives whose function was to make certain political decisions and approve laws for the colony. This colonial institution was later replaced by a most modern institution, known as the House of Delegates. However, the creation of the Virginia House of Burgesses was extremely important because it was one of the first institutions with elected representatives, which serve as a model for many other institutions not only in Virginia but also in other colonies. According to this, the correct answer is A.
