The correct answer is B) President can prevent a bill from becoming law.

The Constitution limits the power of the federal government the President can prevent a bill from becoming law.

Indeed the US President has the power to veto a bill passed by Congress. The federal system in the United States included a separation of powers under a system of checks and balances. This means that the three branches of power check each other. The executive branch is the President, the legislative branch is the Congress, and the judicial branch is the Supreme Court.
