  2. B
    Schools and hospitals
  3. C
    The power of judges to interpret and apply the law

Cevap

Defence and immigration are responsibilities of the Australian (Federal) Government.
The correct answer is correct because the Australian (Federal) Government has the constitutional authority to manage matters of national importance that affect the whole country, specifically including defence and immigration.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the core requirement of the question.
The question asks for a specific responsibility of the Australian (Federal) Government as defined by the Constitution.
This establishes the scope as the 'Division of Powers' between different levels of government.
2
Differentiate between Federal and State responsibilities.
Federal powers include national issues like defence, immigration, taxation, and foreign affairs. State powers include service delivery like schools, hospitals, and police.
Applying the constitutional framework helps filter out State-level duties.
3
Distinguish 'Division of Powers' from 'Separation of Powers'.
The power of judges to interpret laws is a branch of government (Judicial), not a level of government (Federal vs State).
This eliminates conceptual confusion between how branches function versus how levels of government share duties.
