Which department is the CDC a component of?

  1. Department of Education

  2. Department of Health and Human Services

  3. Department of Labor

  4. Department of Transportation

The correct answer is: Department of Health and Human Services

The CDC, or Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, is a federal agency that falls under the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The HHS is responsible for protecting the health and well-being of American citizens, and the CDC is a major component of this effort. The other options, such as the Department of Education, Department of Labor, and Department of Transportation, do not have a primary focus on health and therefore do not house the CDC. Thus, B is the only accurate choice.
