Politics is often defined as the study of government and the governed (Answer E).
While the rest of the answers are, in some ways, accurate, politics is far more than just a study of power or voting patterns. Politics describes the study of the social relationships and phenomenon behind how governments are formed and operate, as well as how those who are governed engage with government in various ways. Hope this helps!
