which statement best explains how the constitution addresed a weakness in the articles of confederaction

B. Congress had no way to enforce or interpret the laws it passed, so the Constitution created the executive and judicial branches of the federal government.

Explanation:

Before the United States Constitution, there was the Articles of Confederation. These Articles ended up getting completely thrown out and replaced because many people thought it was too weak and brought the country down.

The Articles of Confederation was known to be very weak and gave little to no power to the federal government. The federal government could not properly create or enforce laws, regulate trade, or tax citizens. This made it very difficult to get anything done and many people thought that it weakened the country.

Anti-Federalists opposed creating a new constitution, as they felt like having a strong government was a threat. Federalists felt the opposite and they wanted to have a strong government and they thought that having a strong government meant having a strong country.

With the Articles of Confederation, Congress couldn't really enforce or interpret any laws that were passed, which the Federalists did not agree with. When the Articles were replaced by the United States Constitution, branches were created in order to equally distribute power and make sure that no power would be used in an unfair or unethical manner.
