BSigning bills into law
CExplaining what the laws mean
DChoosing the Cabinet members
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Explaining what the laws mean
1. The judicial branch is made up of the courts.
2. The courts review laws and explain what those laws mean.
3. They also resolve disputes and decide whether a law goes against the Constitution.
4. Printing money is a power of the federal government as a whole and is not court work.
5. Signing bills into law is the President's job, which belongs to the executive branch.
6. Choosing Cabinet members is also the President's job, so three of the four options describe other branches.
