Question 31 • FL-2106010-M/J Civics A

All of the following statements about the Constitution are TRUE except:

Answer
A
The Constitution gives the legislative branch the power to make laws.
B
The Constitution gives the executive branch the power to enforce laws.
C
The Constitution gives the judicial branch the power to interpret laws.
D
The Constitution gives the executive branch the ability to check only the legislative branch, the legislative branch the ability to check only the judicial branch, and the judicial branch the ability to check only the executive branch.

Explanation

The legislative branch makes laws, the executive branch enforces them, and the judicial branch interprets them. Those descriptions in A, B, and C are true. D is false because checks and balances are not limited to the one-way relationships it describes; each branch can check the powers of other branches in multiple ways.
