Answer 1

1. The two parts of the federal government are the executive branch (President) and the legislative branch (Congress).

2. This is an example of checks and balances because the President's ability to make decisions and take action is limited by the requirement of congressional approval for certain actions, as outlined in the Constitution. This system ensures that no one branch of government becomes too powerful and that each branch has a check on the others.
