Explanation:

This worksheet teaches the separation of powers — a core principle of the U.S. Constitution. Each branch has distinct responsibilities:
- Legislative: Creates laws.
- Executive: Carries out laws.
- Judicial: Interprets laws and ensures they follow the Constitution.

This system prevents any one branch from becoming too powerful, maintaining a balance of power.
