Answer 1

It holds a basic principle underlining the system of laws

Answer 2

Hi! I can totally help you with this question! It is not A or C, because the Magna Carta is not really a reason they sought independence from Britain, not is it really a foundation of the three levels of government. A and C are out. However, it was an inspiration for the U.S. Constitution and was used as a basis while making it. The answer is B.
