Answer 1

The false statement is: "Both countries contain three branches of government with equal amounts of power."

Explanation: The United States has a clear separation of powers among three branches (legislative, executive, judicial) with checks and balances. The United Kingdom has a parliamentary system where the executive is drawn from and dependent on the legislature (a fusion of powers) and Parliament is sovereign, so the branches do not have equal, separate power.
