Explanation:
The government has three branches and these are: Executive, Legislative and Judicial.
The "Executive branch" is responsible for the governance of a state. The leader of the branch is the "President." However, every state is headed by an elected governor. This branch also contains state agencies and other related agencies.
The "Legislative branch" is responsible for creating and passing laws. It contains two houses (the Senate and House of Representatives).
The "Judicial branch" contains a court system. This system is involved in the interpretation of state laws, as well as the laws made by the legislative branch.
