Which of the following is one of the purposes of the U.S. Constitution?

• A. Establish A National Religion
• B. Guarantee Free Healthcare
• C. Create A System Of Equal Currency
• D. Define The Powers Of Government

Answer: (D)

Defining the powers of government is a fundamental purpose of the Constitution. It sets up three branches—each with specific duties—and explains how they interact through checks and balances. This framework shows who makes laws, who enforces them, and who interprets them, while limiting government power to prevent tyranny. The Constitution’s structure also defines the relationship between national and state governments, guiding how authority is distributed.

The other options aren’t objectives of the Constitution. It does not establish a national religion, as the First Amendment prohibits a state church. It doesn’t guarantee free healthcare, since healthcare policy isn’t a constitutional right. And while Congress can coin money and regulate its value, creating a “system of equal currency” isn’t stated as a purpose of the Constitution.
