Explanation:

Question 5

The president (executive branch) issues an executive order. The Supreme Court (judicial branch) is limiting the executive branch's power here by ruling the order unconstitutional. The judicial branch has the power of judicial review to check the executive branch.

Congress (legislative branch) has the authority to impeach federal judges. This is important for balance because it allows the legislative branch to check the judicial branch, preventing judicial misconduct and ensuring no branch becomes too powerful.

Answer:

The executive branch (president) is being limited. The judicial branch (Supreme Court) has the checking power (judicial review) to declare executive actions unconstitutional.
