Question

the constitution defined the judicial system by creating
a. the federal court system of district courts,
appellate courts, and the supreme court.
b. all federal, state, and municipal courts.
c. one supreme court to handle all judicial
matters for the nation.
d. the supreme court and giving congress the
power to create lower courts.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option based on U.S. Constitutional law regarding the judicial system:

• Option A: The Constitution didn't directly create the entire federal court system with district and appellate courts in the way described; Congress has a role in structuring lower courts.
• Option B: The Constitution does not define state and municipal courts (those are state - level matters).
• Option C: The Supreme Court is not the only court handling all judicial matters; lower federal courts exist.
• Option D: Article III of the U.S. Constitution establishes the Supreme Court and gives Congress the power to create lower federal courts. This matches the constitutional definition of the judicial system.

Answer:

D. the Supreme Court and giving Congress the power to create lower courts.
