Answer 1

Sure! Here’s how the examples reflect the constitutional principles:

**Limited Government**
- Cruel punishments and excessive fines are prohibited

**Separation of Powers**
- Only Congress can make laws

**Federalism**
- People are governed by state and national laws

So the table would look like this:

| **Limited Government** | **Separation of Powers** | **Federalism** |
|---------------------------------------------|------------------------------|----------------------------------------|
| Cruel punishments and excessive fines are prohibited | Only Congress can make laws | People are governed by state and national laws |

The option "People can serve in the military" does not fit into any of the categories.
