Answer:

d. Power is divided among legislative, executive, and judicial branches.

Explanation:

The U.S. Constitution is based under the system of separation of powers and the checks and balances principle. Under this system, power is divided among three branches that have specific functions and duties to properly lead the nation: The judicial, the Executive and the Legislative. Likewise, they are all under the system of check and balances, meaning that they all have the power to oversee, limit and check each other so no part can abuse from its powers and a balance in the government exists.
