The consuls were the two annually elected heads of the Republic. The senate was an advisory body which gave advice on bills. It also debated policy matters and issued advice of these matters as well. The consuls usually followed this advice. In certain circumstances the senate could also issue decrees. In the Early Republic both the consulship and the seats of the senate were reserved to the patricians (the aristocracy) and consuls and senate worked together to defend the interests of the patricians. Later the wealthy plebeians (commoners) gained access to the consulship and the senate and became part of the elite. At this point the consuls and the senate both defended the interests of the elite. This does not mean that there were not disagreements or conflicts between consuls and senate on specific policy matters. Moreover, there were also rival political actions. The choices of the candidates for election to the two consulship posts often involved compromises between the factions.
In the Late Republic a new type of politicians emerged. They were the populares ("popularists"). This was a political faction which championed the cause of the poor and wanted reforms which helped the poor, especially land redistribution for the poor. They were opposed by the optimates (the good men), a political faction which favoured the interests of the aristocracy and was opposed to the mentioned reforms. This led to intense conflict and ultimately to civil war. In this period the consuls could belong to either faction. Therefore, there often was not the same commonality of interests between the consuls and the senate as before.

The two groups that ruled in Rome in place of a king were the Senate and the Roman People. (SPQR). The senate was the debating and consulting body, the 'Roman people" were the voting assemblies.
In the new Roman republic, the former position of the "king" was replaced by Two Consuls that were appointed to hold executive powers. At that time, the consuls had to be patricians, and were elected for one year terms. The Consuls had great executive powers including command of the army. In the new Roman Republic, the former position of the overthrown king was replaced by two annually elected Consuls to hold executive powers as heads of the Republic and the army. In the first twenty year of the Republic, 30% of the elected consuls who appeared in the fasti consulares (list of consuls) were plebeians (commoners). After that they were all patrician (aristocrats). The patricians came to monopolise power in what a historian has called the 'closing of the patriciate.' This later led to conflict between patricians and plebeians.
The senate and consuls formed the government of early Rome.
The consuls (the two annually elected heads of the Republic and the army) and the senate were responsible for strengthening the government in the Early Republic.
In a few words, they oversaw the government during their time in office. The consuls not only ran/conducted/convened the senate, they proposed laws for discussion, led armies and were generally responsible for the government.
The Senate began as a council of elders who advised the king. After the establishment of the republic they advised the consuls. Gradually their prestige became so great that their advice had almost the force of law and only in rare circumstances, and with the overwhelming support of the people, was it not followed.

No it did not. The Roman senate was different that the US one. During the Roman Republic it was an unelected an advisory body for the consuls (the two annually elected heads of the Republic) made up of aristocrats and oligarchs. Senators neither proposed bills nor voted on them. In the early Republic the consuls were those who proposed bills, which were put to the vote of the Assembly of the Soldiers. Later it was mainly the plebeian tribunes who proposed bills and these were put to the vote of the Plebeian Council. The senate could, in certain circumstances, issue decrees. Later, during the period of rule by emperors, the senate was emasculated as the emperors were absolute rulers.
