Question

a political effect of the enlightenment was that
some monarchs embraced new ideas from the movement.
support for rebels fighting the french revolution decreased.
many people rejected the idea of representative government.
the constitutional monarchy in england came to an end.

Explanation:

• Analyze each option:
• Option 1: During the Enlightenment, some monarchs (like "enlightened despots") adopted Enlightenment ideas to reform their states, so this is consistent with the political effects of the Enlightenment.
• Option 2: The French Revolution was influenced by the Enlightenment, and support for rebels (who were inspired by Enlightenment ideas) would likely increase, not decrease. So this is incorrect.
• Option 3: The Enlightenment promoted ideas of representative government, so people would be more likely to support, not reject, such ideas. Incorrect.
• Option 4: The constitutional monarchy in England continued (and still exists in a modified form), so this is incorrect.

Answer:

A. some monarchs embraced new ideas from the movement.
