Show answer and explanation
✓ El Congreso de los Diputados
The Cortes Generales (the Spanish parliament) have two chambers: the Congreso de los Diputados and the Senado. In the Congreso the citizens elect 350 deputies, and the Senado is the territorial chamber. The Tribunal Supremo (the Supreme Court) belongs to the judicial power and the Consejo de Ministros (the cabinet) is the Government, not Parliament. An easy rule: Cortes equals Congreso plus Senado.
