The correct answer is C) The Duma became the basis for the anti-czarist movement.

The first Duma was formed in Russia as an elected legislative body - a step toward representation in government. This impacted the Russian government in that the Duma became the basis for the anti-czarist movement.

Duma stands for "Assembly" in English. It was the creation of Tsar Nicholas II when he faced opposition to his government that wanted to rebel against him in 1905. Of the two chambers of the Duma, just one could be elected by Russian citizens. Here comes the tricky play: it was the Tsar that named the other chamber that had the power of veto over the first one.
