Answer:

Federalism is the system of government in which power is divided between a central government and regional governments; in the United States, both the national government and the state governments possess a large measure of sovereignty.

Step-by-step explanation:

Delegated (sometimes called enumerated or expressed) powers are specifically granted to the federal government in Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution. This includes the power to coin money, to regulate commerce, to declare war, to raise and maintain armed forces, and to establish a Post Office.

Separation of powers imposes internal limits by dividing government against itself, giving different branches separate functions and forcing them to share power.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helped!
