iscuss the separation of powers and checks and balances. Use examples to explain the difference between the two ideas.

separation of powers is when there is several branches of a government for example the us government has three branches the executive,judicial,legislative. Checks and balances is similar because their is a cycle so that each branch can check behind each other. It also helps to make sure no branch has too much power.

Explanation: Separation of powers is the border between different branches of government that defines each of them. The executive, legislative, and judicial branch need to have a clear sphere of authority between them. On the other hand, check and balances is a system that helps regulate powers when one branch may become too powerful. A similar system is in effect from the central government (D.C.) and the local sovereign governments (states).
