The correct answer is D) With trade and cultural exchange occurring at every border of the Gupta Empire, the arts, sciences, and culture, thrived.

The sentence that best explains the role of domination in Asian trade routes in the North and multiple seaports in the East, West, and South, on the Indian subcontinent is “with trade and cultural exchange occurring at every border of the Gupta Empire, the arts, sciences, and culture, thrived.”

In the history of India, the Gupta Empire has its important era for the thrive of aspects such as the arts, science, and culture, due to trade and cultural exhange. The guilds from the Mauryan period were the most important producers of manufacture to trade. The products that the Gupta empire traded from the ports of East, West, and South were copper, gold, silver, iron, ivory, and bronze.  

separation of powers, therefore, refers to the division of government responsibilities into distinct branches to limit any one branch from exercising the core functions of another.   the intent is to prevent the concentration of power and provide for checks and balances.  

the traditional characterizations of the powers of the branches of american government are:

* the legislative branch is responsible for enacting the laws of the state and appropriating the money necessary to operate the government.

* the executive branch is responsible for implementing and administering the public policy enacted and funded by the legislative branch.

* the judicial branch is responsible for interpreting the constitution and laws and applying their interpretations to controversies brought before it.

forty state constitutions specify that government be divided into three branches:   legislative, executive and judicial.   california illustrates this approach; "the powers of state government are legislative, executive, and judicial.   persons charged with the exercise of one power may not exercise either of the others except as permitted by this constitution."

while separation of powers is key to the workings of american government, no democratic system exists with an absolute separation of powers or an absolute lack of separation of powers. governmental powers and responsibilities intentionally overlap; they are too complex and interrelated to be neatly compartmentalized. as a result, there is an inherent measure of competition and conflict
