Answer 1

The US Constitution provides a separation of powers by dividing the government into three parts: legislative, executive, and judicial.

The legislative body (Congress) makes laws. It is further divided into the Senate (upper house) and the House of Representatives (lower house). These houses meet in the Capitol Building.

Each state elects two senators. Together, the 50 states elect a total of 100 senators. Members of the lower house are elected in proportion to the population of each state. The House of Representatives has 435 representatives.

The executive branch (the White House) carries out the laws. The president, vice president, and Cabinet members form the executive branch. The president selects the Cabinet members. The Senate must approve them by a majority of votes.

The judicial branch evaluates and determines the constitutionality of laws. It includes the Supreme Court and other federal courts. The president nominates nine justices to the Supreme Court. A majority of the Senate must approve each nomination.
