<span>It cannot be proved that an individual is “innocent.” Juries say “not guilty” because guilt was not proved in the case.

Innocent is an antonym of guilty but is not synonymous to "not guilty". It encompasses more than the term "not guilty". Innocent is defined as someone that is free from moral wrong or is not corrupted or pure.

In the court of law, one cannot say that the accused is innocent. The accused can only be given the verdict of "not guilty" if he or she is found without guilt on the case he or she is facing.</span>

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You did not include options for this question. However, we can say the following.

The United States Constitution established a government based on the basic concepts of separation of powers and checks and balances. The authors of the Constitution included these two concepts because they wanted the three branches to have a balance in power in which none of the three would be more powerful than the other. So the drafters of the US Constitution included controls to keep that balance. The three branches are the executive branch or the President, the legislative branch with tho chambers, and the judicial power or the US Supreme Court.
