1. The two parts of the federal government are the legislative branch (specifically the House of Representatives) and the executive branch (specifically the President). 2. This is an example of checks and balances because the House of Representatives (part of the legislative branch) initiated the process of impeaching the President, while the President (part of the executive branch) was then put on trial by the Senate. This demonstrates how each branch of government has the power to check the actions of the other branches, ensuring that no single branch becomes too powerful.
