Which federal institution is involved in regulating legal controls at the federal level?

  1. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

  2. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)

  3. Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS)

  4. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)

The correct answer is: Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS)

APhis is the correct answer because they are responsible for protecting and regulating the health of agriculture, animal welfare, and plant health at the federal level. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) focuses primarily on environmental protection and occupational safety and health administration (OSHA) is responsible for workplace health and safety. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) mainly deals with weather and marine resources. While these institutions may have some involvement in regulating legal controls, APHIS is the only one specifically mentioned as being involved in this task.
