Brief Explanations
- For question 17: In the United States, the judicial branch (the Supreme Court is part of the judicial branch) has the role of interpreting the law. The executive branch (President) enforces laws, and the legislative branch (Congress, Senate) makes laws.
- For question 18: U.S. Supreme Court Justices serve for life or until they retire. They are not voted out (like some elected officials), there is no 10 - year term limit, and the President can only appoint them, not replace them at will (except in cases like impeachment which is a rare and formal process).
