Explanation:

1. removing a federal judge for bad behavior: The legislative branch (Congress) has the power to impeach and remove federal judges, which is a check on the judicial branch.
2. nominating someone to serve as a federal judge: This is a power of the executive branch (the President), not the legislative branch. So this is incorrect.
3. overriding a presidential veto: The legislative branch (Congress) can override a presidential veto with a two - thirds vote, which is a check on the executive branch.
4. voting not to approve a president’s nominee for a federal office: The legislative branch (Senate, part of Congress) has the power to confirm or reject the President's nominees, which is a check on the executive branch.

Answer:

• removing a federal judge for bad behavior
• overriding a presidential veto
• voting not to approve a president’s nominee for a federal office
