How do the powers granted or denied in the constitution result in a balance of power between the three branches, and between the federal and state governments?

A system where power is divided between the National government and State government is called Federalism.

Explanation: The constitution divides the power between the national or federal government and the state government, which serves as a system of checks and balances since absolute power is not vested in only one level of government.

The federal government is further comprised of 3 branched, each with their duties as backed by the constitution. They are:

1. The executive ; where power is vested in the President, who may often delegate the power to the members of Cabinet and/or other officials.

2. The Legislative; where power is

vested in the Senate and the House of Representatives,collectively called Congress. The Constitution grants powers to Congress and any disputes are decided by the Supreme Court.

3. The judiciary; who explains and applies the laws. This branch makes decisions on various legal cases.

This distribution of power ensures that no arm or level of government can act with impunity and aids the balance of power. It greatly reduces any chance for abuse of power.
