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)

The Gilded Age was a time in American history that received its name due to the huge fortunes it created for different citizens. During this era, robber barons became an integral part of society. Robber barons were individuals who became rich/dominant in a particular industry through business deals. Some examples of robber barons include John D. Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie, and JP Morgan.

John D. Rockefeller represented the Gilded Age well during this time. His monopoly on the oil industry allowed him to be considered one of the richest people in American history. At one point, Rockefeller controlled roughly 90% of the oil consumed in the United States. This allowed Rockefeller to live a lavish lifestyle.
