Which body is described as the executive among the three organs of government?

The executive is the arm of government that runs the state and puts laws into action. In constitutional terms, the Crown is described as the executive power, though in practice its functions are carried out by the Prime Minister and the Cabinet on advice. Parliament is the body that makes laws, and the Judiciary is responsible for interpreting and applying those laws. The People are the source of sovereignty in a democracy. So, among the options, the Crown fits as the executive.
