The Check and Balances
The separation of powers divides power between the three branches of government with a system of checks and balances between them.
In general terms, nearly every governmental system gives particular duties to each branch of government within it. At the same time, 'constitutional' systems are rightly famous in respect to their careful delineation of distinct branches of government and the proper duties for each; for example, the American system provides very clear guidance on the duties for its judicial, legislative, and executive branches of government.
There are three branches of the US Federal Government, the Legislative, Executive and Judicial Branches all with individual duties and powers. These Branches ensure no one has too much power.
Federalism. The system that divides power between the national government and the state government is called the "Federal System."
The Constitution established three branches of government for a check and balance system.

The system of checks and balances helps maintain the separation of power between the three branches of the US government, and prevents any single branch from becoming too powerful.
A national government and state governments
The system of checks and balances affects the branches of government by ensuring that each of the 3 branches of government are equal in power. The system of checks and balances, both checks, and limits the power of the 3 branches of government to ensure that each branch of government doesn't become to powerful.

Federal System
It doesn't quite work that way. The States and their people ARE the government, and they have allowed the Federal government to do a very few things like regulate sales of items between and among the States, provide a military to protect all of the States, and to mint money.
