The statement that accurately describes how the Texas Constitution addresses a constitutional principle is:

The Texas Bill of Rights, which lists protected liberties and privileges, addresses the principle of individual rights.

This statement correctly identifies the relationship between the Texas Bill of Rights and the principle of individual rights. The other statements do not accurately align the principles with their respective descriptions. For instance, the ability of the executive branch to veto bills relates more to the principle of checks and balances, and the division of government into branches relates to separation of powers rather than federalism.
