Which is part of the selection process for all federal judges? a. being approved by the supreme court b. being confirmed by the senate c. being elected by state legislatures d. being nominated through a popular vote

b. Being confirmed by the Senate

Explanation:

Regarding the selection process for all federal judges, Article II of the U.S. Constitution states the following:

... and he (The President) shall nominate, and by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, shall appoint ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls, judges of the Supreme Court, and all other officers of the United States, whose appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by law.

Therefore, in order for a person to become a federal judge, they first have to be appointed by the President (who has to take into account the Senate's advice), and then they have to be confirmed by the Senate. This selection process is a clear example of how the Checks and Balances system work in the U.S., in which each branch of the government has the power to oversee, check and limit the other branches.
