The action that demonstrates the principle of checks and balances is: The Supreme Court reviews laws passed by Congress.

This action exemplifies checks and balances because it involves the judicial branch (the Supreme Court) reviewing and potentially overriding legislation enacted by the legislative branch (Congress), ensuring that no single branch of government becomes too powerful.
