Answer:

The executive branch—Creates laws (Congress, comprised of the House of Representatives and Senate)

The legislative branch—Ensures that laws are followed (president, vice president, Cabinet, most federal agencies)

The judicial branch—Conducts law evaluations (Courts, including the supreme court)

Step-by-step explanation:

As the federal government is modeled after each state government, there are three main branches of government: the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. A “republican form” of government is mandated by the U.S. Constitution, although the three branches of government are not required in each state to adhere to the constitution.

Hope this helps :)
