Great job on getting a perfect score! Let's go through each question and explain how you arrived at the correct answers:
1. Which refers to the division of government into three branches in order to distribute power among multiple groups?
You correctly answered D, separation of powers. This concept refers to the division of powers and functions of a government into different branches, usually the legislative, executive, and judicial branches. Each branch has its own distinct responsibilities and serves as a check on the others to prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful.
2. Which refers to the division of governmental power between the federal and state governments?
You correctly answered B, federalism. Federalism is a system of government where power is divided between a central governing authority (in this case, the federal government) and individual state governments. It allows for shared sovereignty and gives both levels of government their own separate areas of jurisdiction.
3. What check does the president have over Congress?
You correctly answered C, using a veto. The president has the power to veto or reject legislation passed by Congress. This serves as a significant check on Congress's power because if the president vetoes a bill, it must achieve a two-thirds majority in both the Senate and the House of Representatives to override the veto and become law.
4. What are some similarities between the governments created by Georgia’s constitution and by the U.S. Constitution? Choose all that apply.
You correctly identified multiple similarities. The correct answers are A - Bill of Rights, B - an executive branch, C - a legislative branch, and D - a judicial branch. These similarities reflect the fundamental principles of democratic governance and the structural similarities between the two governmental systems.
