The correct table should accurately represent the three branches of the government along with their primary responsibilities and members. Here is the correct information:

  • Executive Branch:

    • Primary Responsibility: Enforce laws
    • Members: President, cabinet, and government departments
  • Legislative Branch:

    • Primary Responsibility: Make laws
    • Members: Congress
  • Judicial Branch:

    • Primary Responsibility: Decide if laws are constitutional
    • Members: The Supreme Court and other federal courts

Based on that breakdown, the second response from your options is the correct one:

 Branch   Primary Responsibility                      Members
 executive  enforce laws                               president, cabinet, and government departments
 legislative make laws                                  Congress
 judicial    decide if laws are constitutional         the Supreme Court and other federal courts

This accurately reflects the roles of each branch of government.
