Answer:

Correct answer is 3-a branch of government becomes too strong .

Step-by-step explanation:

Influenced by Montesquieu's ideas the framers of Constitution wanted to create political bodies that will divide power between themselves.

Therefore option 1 is correct.

Option 1 is not correct as military had no connection with this part.

Option 2 was resolved within division of state power in Senate and Congress.

Option 4 also is not correct as in democracy people have the right to change governments.
