Question

For each principle, describe how the Constitution protects this idea.

1. Checks and Balances:
2. Popular sovereignty
3. Limited Government
4. Federalism
5. Separation of power

Answer 1

Checks and Balances Is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of checks and balances in government was developed to ensure that no one branch of government would become too powerful. The framers of the U.S. Constitution built a system that divides power between the three branches of the U.S. government—legislative, executive and judicial—and includes various limits and controls on the powers of each branch.
