Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Branches of the U.S. Government | Worksheet
I need to fill in the branches of the U.S. government based on this diagram. Let me work through this step by step.

The diagram shows:
- Constitution at the top (the foundation)
- Three main buildings shown: Capitol Building, White House, and a building with a gavel (courthouse)
- Empty circles below that need to be filled in

The three branches of the U.S. government are:
1. Legislative Branch - makes laws
2. Executive Branch - enforces/executes laws
3. Judicial Branch - interprets laws

Looking at the connections:
- The Capitol Building is where Congress meets → This is the Legislative Branch
- The White House is where the President works → This is the Executive Branch
- The building with the gavel represents courts → This is the Judicial Branch

Now I need to identify what goes in each circle. Looking at the red lines connecting them:

From the Capitol Building (Legislative), there are lines going down to two circles on the left side. These would be the parts of the Legislative Branch:
- Senate
- House of Representatives

From the White House (Executive), there's a line going to one circle in the middle bottom. This would be:
- President (or Executive/President)

From the courthouse (Judicial), there are lines going to two circles on the right side. These would be the levels of the Judicial Branch:
- Supreme Court
- Federal Courts (or lower federal courts)

Let me verify this structure makes sense with how the U.S. government is organized. Yes, this is correct!

Final Answer:
Left side (from Capitol Building/Legislative Branch):
- Senate
- House of Representatives

Middle bottom (from White House/Executive Branch):
- President

Right side (from Courthouse/Judicial Branch):
- Supreme Court
- Federal Courts
