through the president's rejection of laws

through the declaration of laws as unconstitutional

Explanation:

The US government is based on the principle of Separation of Powers which sets the basis for the Checks and Balances system. Under this latter, each of the three branches has the power to oversee, check and limit the other branches. Two ways in which the Legislative branch powers are held in check are the following:

1. Through the president's rejection of laws: Congress has the power to create and pass bills, however, these bills can not become laws until they are sent to the President who has the power to sign them into laws, to reject them (in which case, they are sent back to Congress) or to sit on them.

2. Through the declaration of laws as unconstitutional: The Supreme Court has the power to evaluate laws and to determine the constitutionality of laws passed by Congress and acts of the executive. If the Supreme Court declares a law passed by Congress unconstitutional, it is rendered invalid.

africa, the second-largest continent, is bounded by the mediterranean sea, the red sea, the indian ocean, and the atlantic ocean. it is divided in half almost equally by the equator. the continent includes the islands of cape verde, madagascar, mauritius, seychelles, and comoros.

africa’s physical geography, environment and resources, and human geography can be considered separately.

the origin of the name “africa” is greatly disputed by scholars. most believe it stems from words used by the phoenicians, greeks, and romans. important words include the egyptian word afru-ika, meaning “motherland”; the greek word aphrike, meaning “without cold”; and the latin word aprica, meaning “sunny.”

today, africa is home to more countries than any other continent in the world. these countries are: morocco, western sahara (morocco), algeria, tunisia, libya, egypt, sudan, chad, niger, mali, mauritania, senegal, the gambia, guinea-bissau, guinea, sierra leone, liberia, côte d’ivoire, ghana, burkina faso, togo, benin, nigeria, cameroon, central africa republic, equatorial guinea, gabon, congo, democratic republic of the congo, angola, namibia, botswana, south africa, lesotho, swaziland, mozambique, zimbabwe, zambia, malawi, tanzania, rwanda, burundi, uganda, kenya, somalia, ethiopia, djibouti, eritrea and the island countries of cape verde, madagascar, mauritius, seychelles, and comoros.
