The example that is not an example of a check or balance put into the U.S. Constitution is:
C. Senior religious leaders declare that an act of Congress is incompatible with the core principles of the nation.
Checks and balances outlined in the U.S. Constitution involve the powers and actions of the three branches of government (legislative, executive, and judicial), ensuring that each branch has certain controls over the others. The involvement of senior religious leaders in declaring an act of Congress incompatible with national principles is not a constitutional provision for checks and balances but may reflect an aspect of public opinion or influence on policy rather than a formal mechanism within the Constitution.
