The correct answer should be B. greater power to create and abolish typical regulatory agencies.

He has no influence on the independent agency, but has a limited influence on typical ones. It is limited because he couldn't dissolve or abolish the existence of the State Department, but he could influence it by changing the people working there or something similar.
