Answer 1

The excerpt that best demonstrates the constitutional principle of separation of powers is:

"All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States."

This statement clearly delineates the powers of the legislative branch (Congress) and emphasizes that legislative authority is separate from the powers of the executive and judicial branches, illustrating the principle of separation of powers established in the U.S. Constitution.
