Which branch of government interprets the laws?

  1. The Legislative Branch

  2. The Executive Branch

  3. The Judicial Branch

  4. The Administrative Branch

The correct answer is: The Judicial Branch

The judicial branch is responsible for interpreting the laws. The Legislative Branch is responsible for making the laws and the Executive Branch is responsible for enforcing the laws, so they do not have the power to interpret them. The Administrative Branch typically deals with the day-to-day operations of government agencies and does not have the authority to interpret laws. Therefore, the most accurate answer is C, the Judicial Branch.
