First Question: The English Bill of rights created ______.
The English Bill of Rights (1689) established a limited monarchy by restricting the power of the monarch and giving more authority to Parliament. Absolute monarchy (B) was reduced, Parliament became stronger (so C is wrong), and the Divine Right of Kings (D) was rejected.
The English Bill of Rights restricted the monarch's power: they could not create taxes (so B is incorrect as a part of it), they could not suspend laws (C is part of it), free speech in Parliament was allowed (D is part of it), and the right to bear arms is an American concept (from the US Bill of Rights), not part of the English Bill of Rights.
The British Constitution is uncodified and made up of multiple documents (like Magna Carta, Acts of Parliament, etc.). It was not overturned by Parliament (A), William & Mary supported constitutional limits (B is wrong), and the US Constitution was influenced by British ideas, not the other way (D is wrong).
