Question

Flowchart with 6 boxes. Box A sits at the very bottom of the left side of the flowchart, which flows into Box B. Box B flows into Box C. Box C flows into Box D. On the bottom of the right side of the flowchart, Box F flows into Box E, and Box E flows into Box D. Box D is the highest point in the flowchart.

Which of the following sections represent state-level courts?

D, E, F
B, E
A, B, C
A, F

Answer 1

The correct answer is: A, B, C

The flowchart suggests a structure where Box A represents a starting point, and the flow progresses through Box B to C and then to D, which is the highest point. This sequence resembles the progression through trial courts at different levels, with D being a higher-level court.

On the other side, Box F flows into Box E, and then both flow into D. This pattern is akin to an appellate or higher-level court reviewing decisions from lower-level courts. Therefore, the combination A, B, C on one side and F, E on the other side represents a structure reminiscent of state-level courts.
