Solution
- A presidential form of government is a system of governance in which the president is both the head of state and the head of government. In this system, the executive branch is separate and independent from the legislature.
- The president is directly elected by the people for a fixed term and cannot be removed by the legislature through a vote of no confidence. The President has real executive powers and appoints the members of the Cabinet, who are responsible to the President and not to the legislature.
- This system ensures separation of powers, with checks and balances among the executive, legislature, and judiciary. The United States of America is the best-known example of a presidential form of government.
