Answer:

State Board of Education is overseen by an 11-member council.

Option (D) is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Texas State Board of Education (SBOE) is a 10-member elected body that oversees public education in Texas.

The SBOE is responsible for setting curriculum standards, adopting textbooks, and overseeing teacher certification.

The other options are incorrect:

The Texas Water Development Board is overseen by a nine-member board of directors appointed by the governor.

The Parks and Wildlife Department is overseen by a five-member commission appointed by the governor.

The Health and Human Services Commission is overseen by a three-member commission appointed by the governor.

Thus,

Option (D) is true.
