18. Earlier this year, and again in this Unit, you have learned about the six principles of the Constitution (popular sovereignty, limited government, checks & balances, separation of powers, judicial review, and federalism). Choose two of these principles and provide two examples showing how the Bill of Rights supports these principles. Your answer should include at least two specific amendments from the Bill of Rights. Your answer needs to explain how the examples you chose support the principles that you chose.

Checks and Balances. The Constitution divided the Government into three branches: legislative, executive, and judicial. ... The President in the executive branch can veto a law, but the legislative branch can override that veto with enough votes. This is an example because in the Bill of Rights it states that not one branch should have more power then the other two. In political philosophy, limited government is where the government is empowered by law from a starting point of having no power, or where governmental power is restricted by law, usually in a written constitution. It is a key concept in the history of liberalism.

Hope this helps!
