Find and describe five examples of "check and balances" in the Constitution.

Checks and balances exist to keep the executive, legislative, and judicial branches equal. Some examples of checks and balances in the Constitution include:

The president's power to veto a bill (executive check on the legislative branch) The House's power to impeach (legislative check on both the executive branch and the judicial branch) Both houses of Congress must pass each bill (legislative self-check since this branch is bicameral with both the House and the Senate) Judicial review (judicial check on both the legislative branch and the executive branch) The president's pardon power (executive check on the judicial branch)

These are just a few. Let me know if you have any questions.
