Which of these is an example of separation of powers?
1) The President fres a cabinet member who is performing poorly.
2) Representatives rewrite a bill in committee meetings.
3) Representatives hold hearings to hear public opinion.
4) The President enforces a law passed by Congress.
The President is enforcing a law that was passed by Congress. One branch can't have the power to pass a law and enforce it. Therefore the branches are sharing/separating the power.
