In order to explain the evidence presented and its connection to the question, we need to understand the context of the document and the question being asked.
The evidence you provided comes from a document, referred to as Document B, which states, “Liberty requires that the three great departments of power should be separate and distinct.” This suggests that there should be a separation of powers in a government system.
To find the answer to the question, we need to analyze the evidence and compare it to the information provided in the Constitution of the United States. There are three articles in the Constitution that outline the powers of each branch of government.
Article 1, Section 1: This section establishes the legislative branch, consisting of the Congress, which includes the Senate and the House of Representatives. The legislative branch is responsible for making laws.
Article 2, Section 1, Clause 1: This section establishes the executive branch, which is headed by the President of the United States. The executive branch is responsible for enforcing laws.
Article 3, Section 1: This section establishes the judicial branch, consisting of the Supreme Court and other inferior courts. The judicial branch is responsible for interpreting laws.
By comparing the evidence from Document B to the Constitution, we can see that the document aligns with the constitutional structure of separating powers among the branches. It emphasizes the importance of the branches being separate and distinct from each other for the preservation of liberty.
Therefore, the evidence you provided supports the idea that each branch was responsible for different things, as stated in Document B and confirmed by the Constitution.
