Answer:

The correct answer is C. The two bodies that make up the United Nations are the General Assembly and the Security Council.

Step-by-step explanation:

The United Nations (UN) is the largest existing international organization. It was created to maintain international peace and security, foster friendly relations among nations, achieve international cooperation to solve global problems and serve as a center that harmonizes the actions of nations.

The UN is governed by the Charter of the United Nations, which entered into force on October 24, 1945 and was signed on June 25 of the same year in the city of San Francisco, by 51 countries, a few months before the end of World War II

The 193 Member States of the United Nations and other related agencies deliberate and decide on significant and administrative issues at periodic meetings held during the year. The main organs of the UN are the General Assembly, the Security Council, the Economic and Social Council, the General Secretariat, the Trusteeship Council and the International Court of Justice.
