Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

"Reserved powers" refers to powers that are not specifically granted to the federal government by the Constitution. The Tenth Amendment gives these powers to the states.

The answer to your question is B, because reserved powers are education, licences, and police/fire departments.
