The responsibilities held by the federal government among the options you provided are:

  • protecting national parks
  • administering healthcare (to some extent, especially through federal programs like Medicare and Medicaid)
  • providing Social Security

The other options (managing intercity traffic, creating garbage collection services, and chartering city governments into existence) are typically responsibilities held by state and local governments rather than the federal government.
