b. senators can serve as judges when a seat is vacant.
c. congress has the power to create all courts underneath the supreme court.
d. congress can lobby the president to elect certain people to the bench.

The correct answer is A) Congress can appoint judges to the federal and Supreme Court.

The legislative branch uses the checks and balances system to monitor the judicial branch in that Congress can appoint judges to the federal and Supreme Court.

The system of checks and balances has helped the United States government to maintain a balance of powers so neither branch can dominate the other or abuse in the application of its powers. The President of the United States -the executive branch- has the power of vetoing laws that Congress wishes to pass. That is its check on the legislative. But the legislative can override the President's veto by a two-thirds vote in the House of Representatives and the Senate. Meanwhile, the Judicial branch checks both branches by declaring laws unconstitutional.

the three-fifths compromise was proposed by james wilson and roger sherman, who were both delegates for the constitutional convention of 1787. however, the three-fifth compromise has its roots further back in history, dating back to the continental congress in 1783. the compromise was a result of the apportionment of taxes being related to land values.
