Answer:
b. a government where a single ruler, like a king, makes all the decisions.
Explanation:
The separation of powers within government, an idea the Montesquieu first came up with, is one way to prevent all power and decision-making capacities to depend on one single individual (like a king or a tyrant) or even a single group of people (like in an oligarchy). By the separation of powers into a judicial, an executive, and a legislative branch, a government can be secured against the will of one individual ruling over the entire population, thus securing a more democratic and egalitarian kind of government.
