Answer:

The Parliament of the Great Britain is the law making body that governs the UK that includes Wales, England, North Ireland and Scotland.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Parliament of Great Britain is branched into the following,

  • A House of Lords
  • A House of Commons

House of Lords: The upper house, meets in Palace of Westminister. It includes Lords Temporal who are life peers and Lords Spirituals, the bishops in established Church of England.

House of Commons: The lower house, meets in the Portcullis House and Westminister Palace. It includes 650 MP (Members of Parliament). By the first-past-the-post system, the members are elected representing the constituencies till the parliament is dissolved.

The Commons passes the bills and the Lords examines it. The seats are fixed in House of Commons but the seats are not fixed for House of Lords.
