Which establishes the duties and responsibilities of state government?

Answer
A
a state’s high court
B
the US Constitution
C
a state’s constitution
D
the US Supreme Court

Explanation

A state’s constitution establishes the structure, duties, and responsibilities of that state’s government. The U.S. Constitution defines the federal government and sets limits on both federal and state powers, but it does not lay out each state government’s specific responsibilities. Therefore, the correct choice is a state’s constitution.
