I think the answer would be "A" because Governors play two broad roles in relation to state legislatures. First, they may be empowered to call special legislative sessions, provided in most cases that the purpose and agenda for the sessions are set in advance. Second, and more familiarly, governors coordinate and work with state legislatures in:

****approval of state budgets and appropriations;**** (This is why the answer is "A")enactment of state legislation;confirmation of executive and judicial appointments; andlegislative oversight of executive branch functions.
