The correct answer is B) A constitutional monarchy with elected officials holding most political power.
The phrase that best describes the British government during the 19th century is a constitutional monarchy with elected officials holding most political power.
In that period of Great Britain, the power of the monarchy was limited by the Parliament. The Parliament were representatives of the people and it represented a balance of power in England. Having lived those dark episodes in the history of English monarchs in the past, and after the Magna Carta, a constitutional monarchy with elected officials holding most political power was the best option of government for England.
