Answer
A
Citizens agree on new regulations through annual elections.
B
The courts establish regulations in response to unfair business practices.
C
Business owners agree to create regulations to better compete with one another.
D
Specialized executive agencies respond to a new policy by creating regulations.

Explanation

After lawmakers set a policy in law, specialized executive agencies often work out the detailed rules needed to carry it out. These rules are called regulations, so the correct choice is “Specialized executive agencies respond to a new policy by creating regulations.” Elections, business agreements, and court decisions do not generally establish agency regulations.
