read the definition and the quote. use your knowledge of word relationships to complete the analogy:
executive branch is to enforce and legislative branch is to
The legislative branch's role, as hinted by the quote ("helps build our laws"), is to make or create laws. The executive branch enforces laws, so the analogy is about the function of each branch. The legislative branch's main function related to laws is to legislate (make laws), or more specifically, to "create" or "make" laws, and from the quote, "build our laws" aligns with "legislate" or "make" (but the key action here is law - making, and the quote uses "build our laws", so the appropriate word to complete the analogy is "legislate" or "make", but in the context of the quote, "build" (which relates to law - making) so the answer is "legislate" (or "make/build laws", but the core action is law - making, so the word is "legislate" or more precisely, from the quote, "build our laws" implies the legislative branch is to "legislate" (or "make") laws. However, the most direct word from the quote's context is "legislate" or "make", but the standard function of the legislative branch is to make laws, so the answer is "legislate" (or "make", but "legislate" is more precise).
