Answer 1

Separation of powers is a system of government in which the responsibilities and powers of the government are divided among different branches or institutions, such as the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. This division helps ensure that no one branch has too much power and serves as a system of checks and balances to prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful.
