What branch of government can prevent the President from controlling the Supreme Court?
The Legislative branch checks the President's influence over the Supreme Court because nominations to the Court can only be appointed with the "advice and consent" (simple majority vote) of the Senate. If the President and majority in Senate represent different parties, this prevents the President from nominating someone whose ideology is too extreme.
What branch is the president of the senate branch?
I'm assuming this is referring to the US (other countries have Senates too!). In the US Senate, the Vice President is normally considered the President of the Senate, and he is part of the Executive branch. However, when the VP isn't around, the oldest member of the Senate from the majority party, currently Senator Daniel Inouye of Hawaii, is considered the "president pro tempore" ("president for the time") of the Senate. He would be part of the Legislative branch.
If the president pro tempore of the Senate cannot assume the office of the president who is next in line to take over?
If you are asking about the Presidential succession list, The Secretary of State is next in line after the President pro tempore. If the president pro tempore dies or resigns his office , a new pro tempore would be elected by the Senate. If a senator is too sick to serve but does not resign, nothing is done.

The Vice President is the President of the Senate, a largely ceremonial role, whose only real power lies in breaking tie votes in the Senate, the strongest recent example of which was Al Gore breaking the 50-50 tie in the Senate for the Clinton Tax Hikes of 1993.
What does the vice-president stand for?
The Constitution gives the Vice President two powers: preside as President of the Senate and to take over the job of the President when he/she resigns, dies in office, or is considered by a vote of Congress and the VP, to be too ill to carry out the duties of the office. Over the years, the VP has become more like a member of the Cabinet and he/she handles duties assigned by the President. The VP often acts as the representative of the President when the President cannot attend a special meeting or assembly or travel to a foreign nation for a diplomatic reason.

How does the system of checks and balances work as a safeguard?
The system of checks and balances works as a safeguard because no one branch of the government can have complete control. This keeps the power spread out so noone has too much influence. For example the President can propose laws, but he needs the House and Senate approval for them to be enacted.
How did Woodrow Wilson believe US presidents should conduct treaty negotiations before he was elected US president?
Before Woodrow Wilson was elected to the US presidency he believed that the Senate should play an intimate role in helping the US president to handle treaties. His views were clear and strong. After he became the US president however, he changed his mind. As president Wilson decided to look at his past statements as perhaps being too one sided on the issue of Senate cooperation. When WW 1 ended he took on his role as a negotiator of the Versailles Treaty with no contact with the US Senate. Wilson would find out that the Senate would make all his labors to bring nothing as the Senate by a wide margin voted against the Versailles Treaty.
