Explicació
Checks and balances, principle of government under which separate branches are empowered to prevent actions by other branches and are induced to share power. Checks and balances are applied primarily in constitutional governments. This means same thing as separation of powers which is the vesting of the legislative, executive, and judiciary powers of government in separate bodies.
