A: the English Parliament
The Great Council that was involved with the Magna Carta later evolved into what is today known as the English Parliament. Over time, the functions and composition of the Great Council changed, and it began to include representatives from different parts of English society, not just the nobility. This eventually developed into a bicameral legislature, consisting of an upper house (House of Lords) and a lower house (House of Commons), which are the two components of the modern UK Parliament.
