What is one way that state constitutions are similar to the u. s. constitution?
a) the u. s. constitution and most state constitutions are roughly the same length.
b) the amendment process for both the u. s. constitution and state constitutions is the same.
c) both the u. s. constitution and state constitutions provide power for creating local governments.
d) both the u. s. constitution and state constitutions divide power between three branches of government.

Answer is Option D:  Both the U.S. Constitution and state constitutions divide power between three branches of government.

Explanation:

The Constitution is based on the system of federalism in which power of the three branches: legislative, executive, and judicial are divided between the national and he state government. This is the similarity between the two.

State Constitutions are usually lengthier and detailed than federal Constitution. So, option A is incorrect. The State Constitution is more open to amendments, making Option B incorrect. Also, local government must be granted power by the state. So, option C is also incorrect. Thus, the similarity is Option D.
