C. They are required to set education policies that affect state public  schools.

D. They are heavily influenced by procedures of direct democracy,  including the referendum.

A. They are organized into executive, legislative, and judicial  branches

Explanation:

The federal government, as mandated by the Constitution of the United States, is divided into three branches to ensure noone holds too much power. The legislative branch makes laws (Congress), the executive carries those laws out (president, vice president, Cabinet, and most federal agencies), while the judicial branch evaluates laws (Supreme Court).

State governments are shaped following the federal structure, and, although the three-branch division is not required at the state level by the constitution, all states ave the three branches as well.
