1. The two parts of the federal government are the executive branch and the legislative branch.
2. This is an example of checks and balances because the executive branch, represented by the President, is using its power to veto a bill passed by the legislative branch, represented by Congress. This demonstrates how each branch has the ability to limit the powers of the other branches and ensure a system of balance and accountability within the government.

  1. The federal government has two main parts: the executive branch and the legislative branch.

  2. This shows how checks and balances work. The executive branch, led by the President, can say "no" to a bill that Congress (the legislative branch) has passed. This way, each branch can keep the other branches in check, making sure that no one gets too powerful and that everything is fair in the government.
