The correct answer is C. Checks and balances. The Checks and balances system is crucial for constitutional and tripartite governments. Since it allows for the different branches of a government (judiciary, executive and legislative power) to share and control their power. It prevents the risk of power centralization and defines the specific duties each branch government has to fulfill.
