Which scenario is an accurate example of how branches of the federal government can check each other's powers? a. the supreme court rules an executive order unconstitutional so the president replaces some of the justices on court b. the president vetoes a law passed by congress but congress overrides the veto with a two-third majority veto c. the president nominates a new judge to fill a federal court vacancy but the supreme court vetoes the candidates because of his inexperience d. the senate refuses to approve the presidents federal court nominees, so the supreme court impeaches several senators

My answers were different. mine was *Congress overrides a presidential veto to make a new law, but the supreme court ruled that the law is unconstitutional*

Apex!!!

The correct answer is B) The president vetoes a law passed by Congress but Congress overrides the veto with a two-third majority veto.

This is a perfect example of checks and balances. Within our government, all three branches of the federal government have the power to check the power of another branch. In this example, the executive branch (aka president) checks the power of the legislative branch (aka Congress) by stopping a bill from becoming a law. After this, the legislative branch then checks the power of the executive branch by overruling the presidents veto with a 2/3 majority vote in both the House and Senate.

what are the choices?
