Answer 1

The three powers that are assigned exclusively to the Senate are:

1. Try cases of the impeachment of federal officials - The Senate conducts the trial for officials impeached by the House of Representatives.

2. Confirm Presidential appointments - The Senate has the authority to confirm or reject Presidential appointments to the federal judiciary, cabinet, and other key positions.

3. Ratify treaties - The Senate must approve treaties negotiated by the President before they become effective.

So, the correct responses are:

• Try cases of the impeachment of federal officials.
• Confirm Presidential appointments.
• Ratify treaties.
