Servants b. Those who work in the bureaucracy are up for reelection every two years c. Those who work in the bureaucracy have no say in regulations that are created d. Those who work in the bureaucracy are elected by citizens

Answer 1

The correct statement that explains a way that the bureaucracy stays independent is:

**A. Those who work in the bureaucracy are civil servants.**

Civil servants are typically appointed based on merit and professionalism rather than elected, which helps to insulate the bureaucracy from political pressures and influence, allowing it to function independently from shifting political agendas.
