To find the answer to question 1, you can refer to the U.S. Constitution. The Constitution outlines the structure and powers of the government. In this case, you would need to locate the section that addresses the branches of government.

For question 2, you need to determine which responsibilities are held by the legislative branch rather than the executive branch. It may be helpful to understand the roles and responsibilities of each branch. The legislative branch is responsible for making laws, while the executive branch is responsible for enforcing them. To find the answer, you can refer to reliable resources such as civics textbooks or online articles that explain the separation of powers in the U.S. government.

To answer question 3, you need to understand how the federal court system decides which criminal cases to take. Again, reliable resources such as legal websites or books about the U.S. judicial system can help you understand the process.
