question 10
what concept did the twelve tables in ancient rome introduce?
a. rule of law
b. separation of powers
c. representative government
d. individual rights

Explanation:

The Twelve Tables of ancient Rome were the first written set of laws, establishing that laws apply to all and are publicly known, which is the "rule of law" (everyone, including elites, is subject to law). Separation of powers (B) is more associated with systems like Montesquieu’s or U.S. governance. Representative government (C) involves elected representatives, not the Tables. Individual rights (D) in the Tables were limited and not the core concept; the key was codifying laws for equal application (rule of law).

Answer:

A. rule of law
