The best example of the principle of checks and balances among the options provided is:
**c. courts release a person charged with violating a law that is considered unconstitutional.**
This option exemplifies checks and balances because it involves the judiciary exercising its power to review and potentially overturn actions taken by the legislative branch (law-making) if those actions are found to conflict with the Constitution. This process ensures that no branch of government exceeds its authority or infringes on individual rights.
