The Constitution of the United States of America is made up of a preamble and seven articles. It is the first article that defines the powers and limits of the Legislative branch of the government. The second article of the Constitution defines the powers of the Executive branch of government, and the third article of the Constitution defines the powers of the Judicial branch of government.
The balance of powers is dependant on each branch having a way to monitor the other branches, and each branch having its own separate abilities. The legislative branch is the only branch that can enact policy and change the Constitution. In addition, the legislative branch must approve all appointments to executive and judicial branches made by the President, and the legislative branch may impeach any member of the executive or judicial branch if necessary.
The Judicial branch has what is known as Judicial Review, which means the Judicial Branch may invalidate laws made by the Legislative branch and executive orders made by the Executive branch that it determines is unconstitutional.
