Describe how the three branches of U.S government each work to check and balance the power of the others. Give examples of how these checks and balances keep any one branch from becoming too powerful. make it 3 to 5 sentences and simple
The legislative branch (Congress) makes the laws, but the executive branch (the President) can veto them. The executive branch can also appoint judges to the judicial branch (Supreme Court), but the legislative branch must approve those appointments. The judicial branch can declare laws passed by the legislative branch unconstitutional. These checks and balances ensure that no single branch becomes too powerful and that each branch acts within its intended limits.
a little more simpler
The legislative branch makes laws, but the President can veto them. The President appoints judges, but these appointments must be approved by Congress. The Supreme Court can declare laws unconstitutional. This way, each branch keeps the others from having too much power.
