please select the best answer from the choices provided

a
b
c

Explanation:

The question requires taking existing knowledge of the US Constitution and Mexican life/laws, then using that information in a hypothetical, new scenario (applying US constitutional law to Mexico to predict impacts). Option a is incorrect because the task is not comparing/contrasting the governments directly. Option c is incorrect as it's not solving a defined problem but predicting outcomes of a hypothetical application. Option b matches the task of applying known information to a new, untested situation.

Answer:

b. Asks students to apply information to new situations
