The Executive Branch is the answer.
He resisted calls to turn back and looking for the passage to the Pacific ocean, he took the passageway it was found.
The <u>system of Checks and Balances</u> is the system whereby all three branches of the government (the Judicial, the Executive and the Legislative) can respond to the action of the other and oversee, check and limit the other. Its <u>purpose</u> is to prevent any branch from becoming too powerful, avoid tyranny, and ensure that the power is balanced.
Here is an <u>example</u> of how this system works in the U.S.:
The Judicial branch, whose main power is to evaluate laws, checks the other branches through their “Judicial Review” power which enables it to review and determine the unconstitutionality of laws made by the Legislative branch and acts of the executive. At the same time, the Judicial branch is also checked by the other branches: the President is the one responsible for nominating the Justices of the Supreme Court, and the Legislative is responsible for confirming or rejecting those nominees.
