Which function of the constitution gives citizens trust that government cannot suddenly change rules?

Correct answer: Setting stable and supreme basic rules

Correct answer: A. A constitution establishes the basic rules of the political system and places them above ordinary day-to-day government decisions. Because these rules are stable and difficult to change casually, citizens can plan their lives and trust that their rights and the structure of government will not be altered suddenly. The government must act according to the constitution and follow the required procedure for lawful change. A is correct because stable supreme rules limit arbitrary action and create predictability. B is wrong because daily new orders would create uncertainty. C is wrong because secrecy reduces public trust and accountability. D is wrong because citizens are the people whose rights and participation the constitution protects. Memory cue: constitutional stability creates predictable government, not permanent immobility.
