The correct answer is **Senate**.
**Why?** In ancient Rome, the Senate had significant authority in the legislative process, including the power to approve or veto laws. While the consuls had executive powers and could propose legislation, the Senate played a crucial role in advising and granting approval for laws passed by the popular assemblies, such as the Assembly of Centuries and the Assembly of Tribes. Therefore, the Senate was the group that could effectively approve or veto laws.
