The separation of powers divides the U.S. government into three branches: legislative, executive, and judicial. Each branch has distinct responsibilities and powers, which allows them to check and balance each other, preventing any one branch from becoming too powerful. This structure is outlined in the U.S. Constitution and is essential for maintaining democracy and protecting individual rights.
