D. So immigrants could learn about democracy

Explanation:

In the 19th century, there was the reformation of schooling in the US, lead by Horace Mann. With this, common or public schools were promoted as one of the key services of the US. These schools would be funded by tax money and would allow everyone the opportunity to schooling.

One of the main reasons for this was to create educational opportunities for poor people and immigrants who did not have resources. The idea was to help immigrant children to accommodate to American culture and way of living. Democracy was considered one of the main US ideas, and it was considered immigrants need to learn about it in order to adapt to the society and accept their American identity.

separation of powers, therefore, refers to the division of government responsibilities into distinct branches to limit any one branch from exercising the core functions of another.   the intent is to prevent the concentration of power and provide for checks and balances.  

the traditional characterizations of the powers of the branches of american government are:

* the legislative branch is responsible for enacting the laws of the state and appropriating the money necessary to operate the government.

* the executive branch is responsible for implementing and administering the public policy enacted and funded by the legislative branch.

* the judicial branch is responsible for interpreting the constitution and laws and applying their interpretations to controversies brought before it.

forty state constitutions specify that government be divided into three branches:   legislative, executive and judicial.   california illustrates this approach; "the powers of state government are legislative, executive, and judicial.   persons charged with the exercise of one power may not exercise either of the others except as permitted by this constitution."

while separation of powers is key to the workings of american government, no democratic system exists with an absolute separation of powers or an absolute lack of separation of powers. governmental powers and responsibilities intentionally overlap; they are too complex and interrelated to be neatly compartmentalized. as a result, there is an inherent measure of competition and conflict
