Which branch of government is responsible for interpreting the law?

Legislative
Executive
Judicial
State Governments

The correct answer is: Judicial

The legislative branch is responsible for making laws, not for interpreting them. The executive branch is responsible for enforcing laws, not for interpreting them. State governments may have their own systems of interpreting laws, but the main responsibility for interpreting the law falls on the judicial branch. This branch includes the Supreme Court and all other federal courts. Justices and judges in this branch are responsible for interpreting laws and ensuring they are in line with the Constitution. Therefore, the correct answer is C Judicial.
