What is the purpose and structure of checks and balances? If you’d like could you also give an example of how it can work?

Please and thankyou

Explanation:

The U.S. System of Checks and Balances

In addition to this separation of powers, the framers built a system of checks and balances designed to guard against tyranny by ensuring that no branch would grab too much power

EX- is that the president can veto any bill passed by Congress, but a two-thirds vote in Congress can override the veto. Other examples include: The House of Representatives has sole power of impeachment, but the Senate has all power to try any impeachment.

The purpose of checks and balances is to make sure all branches are doing the right thing.

Explanation:

The legislative branch can check the judical and the excutive branch and vise-versa.
