According to the excerpts from the U.S. Constitution, the powers given to Congress but denied to the state governments are fundamental to separation of powers.

Answer: Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

When the articles of confederation were written, it gave authority to the Congress and the states to print more notes and coins as currency. Later this responsibility was given to the Congress in order to come up with a standardized currency system for the country.

The idea of federalism is quite unclear when it comes to coinage as it was difficult to define currency and coins along with give authority to the states or congress to mint the same.
