Solution

The descriptions that do not pertain to the legislature are:

  1. "They appoint department heads and judges" - This is typically a role of the executive branch, not the legislature. In the U.S., for example, the President appoints department heads and federal judges, subject to Senate confirmation.

  2. "They judge if a bill is legal" - While the legislature does review bills and can reject them for a variety of reasons, determining the legality of a bill is typically a function of the judicial branch, not the legislature. The Supreme Court, for example, has the power to declare laws unconstitutional.
