Explain how certain provisions of the Constitution provide checks and balances among the three branches of government. Provide a recent example of one of the branches exercising its check over another branch. Does your example represent a change from the way the Founders envisioned the use of checks and balances?

There are 3 branches of government:

1. Legistlative

2. Judicial

3. Executive

They all use checks and balances.  

The founding fathers envisioned this to prevent having a government that was too powerful.

An example would be passing a law.  The legslative writes the law, the executive branch approves the law, and the judicial branch makes sure that the law is constitutional.

Hope this helped :) Good luck!
