Answer:

4. Power of the Supreme Court to determine the constitutionality of laws

Explanation:

Judicial review is the Supreme Court's right and power to review laws (in the local, state and federal level) and acts of the legislative branch in order to determine the constitutionality of their acts. This way, the Judicial branch, who ought to be unbiased and be guided by the Constitution, ensures that the other two branches don't abuse from their power.
