Answer 1

Answer:

The best answer for the question: Which of the following best describes the structure of Israel´s government, would be, C: A parliament is elected and then selects the prime minister and the president.

Explanation:

Since its re-formation and recognition as a sovereign state, in 1948, Israel has had a pretty unique system of government. In essence, they consist of an executive branch, led by the prime minister and his cabinet, and a legislative branch, led by the Knesset, which is a unicameral parliament. However, they also have a judicial branch, which is independent completely, and a president of the state. In essence, in their electoral system, people elect the Knesset, and then the Knesset must nominate the candidates for prime minister, which is the highest power in the land. However, it is important to note that it is not the Knesset who finally appoints the prime minister, but the president of the state who elects the person. The president of the state is elected, though, by the Knesset.

Answer 2

C. The parliament of Israel is elected and then selects the prime minister and president.
