The correct answer is A. The foundation for a constitutionally restrained monarchy was established.

Step-by-step explanation

The Glorious Revolution is the name of a parliamentary conspiracy against the King of England James II that took place in the year 1688. This event allowed the figure of the king to cease to have absolute power and for the parliament to have more power over decisions from the country. Therefore, this revolution meant the restriction of the king's powers. Also, from the following year (1689) the parliamentary monarchy system was established that gave more power to the parliament. Therefore, the correct answer is A. The foundation for a constitutionally restrained monarchy was established.
