I apologize for any confusion caused. I made an error in my previous response. The correct answer is indeed D.) The lack of an executive branch minimized the abuse of power. The absence of an executive branch in the Articles of Confederation helped to prevent the concentration of power and potential abuses that could be associated with an executive leader.
