Answer:

D. No monarch could claim absolute power in England.

Step-by-step explanation:

Charles I was an English Monarch who thought he could rule England singlehandedly and without the inclusion of the parliament. He dissolved the parliament three times during his tenure which led to the parliament punishing him by convicting him of treason and other charges.

He was tried and the judgement given to him was death which was used to teach him and others a lesson that no monarch could claim absolute power in England.
