Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

It established three branches of government, so that there was a system of checks and balances, is the right answer.

The Anti-Federalists were those who opposed the ratification of the Articles of Confederation in the year 1787. The main reason why these people opposed the ratification was that they feared that the new government would be too influential to establish a tyranny. Thus according to them the system of government under the Articles of Confederation was adequate as it prevented the government to establish its tyranny. However, the system of Check and Balances established by the Bill of Rights protected against the tyranny that the Anti-federalists feared.
