Answer:

C. a system of checks and balances

Step-by-step explanation:

A government is a system or group of people who are responsible for making decisions on the day to day affairs of an organized community or state.

Normally, in a state a government allows for separation of power among different braches. These branches have separate and independent powers. Therefore they is a need for check and balances.

Checks and balances is a system that allows each of these branch of government to veto another branch thereby preventing any of the branch from gaining too much power.
