The term for a group of advisers to the president is:

• A. Pacifists
• B. Cabinet
• C. Undulate
• D. Acrimonious

Answer: (B)

The cabinet is the group of advisers to the president. This body typically consists of the heads of the major executive departments and a few other senior officials who provide expertise on foreign policy, the economy, defense, domestic issues, and more. They are appointed by the president and often confirmed by the Senate, and they meet with the president to discuss policy options, coordinate administration efforts, and shape key decisions. The other terms don’t fit because pacifists are people who oppose war, undulate means to move in a wavy pattern, and acrimonious describes a bitter or harsh tone—none of these names a formal group that advises the president.
