A. The president can veto legislation.

A check on the power of the legislative branch means that the legislative branch is the one being stopped. There can be two ways that a bill that is passed by the legislative branch can be stopped:

1) A veto against the bill (Option A)

2) The Supreme Court rules that the law is unconstitutional.

Note that for option (C), while it states the Supreme Court, it is talking about presidential actions (executive branch powers), and so it is not the answer

Option A is an example of a check on the power of the legislatibe branch of the constitution. The president can veto a legislation thanks to the existence of Checks and Balances, which funtion is to make sure no one branch would be able to control too much power, that is that this system limits the power of the three branches devided by the constitution: Legislative, executive and judicial. In this case the executive (President) is limiting the legislative power (Congress)

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

True.

What one says can make an enemy sympathizer happy to hear. A mother could talk about the socks she's knitting for you grandson, a father could talk about the truck's engine being hard to start (with no other details), but it was forbidden to talk about things that give away troop movements or anything that might be useful to the enemy. They would love to know that there were ships leaving the Baltimore harbor. The submarines would be there waiting for them.

In some cases it would be considered to be treason to divulge certain information, so your freedom of speech is severely limited.
