Explanation:

For the first question: A constitutional monarchy is defined by a monarch's powers being limited and outlined by a constitution, so they only exercise powers granted in that document. Options A and B describe absolute monarchy traits, and D is incorrect as queens can hold power in constitutional monarchies.
For Question 16: The Magna Carta established the principle of trial by jury of peers for nobles, a key limitation on royal power.
