Answer

The answer is Limited government.

Explanation
Option 1: Effective government

An effective government is one that efficiently implements policies and meets the needs of its citizens. This term does not specifically describe the American system's structure of checks and balances.

Option 2: Caretaker government

A caretaker government is a temporary government that manages the affairs of a country until a new government is elected or formed. This term does not apply to the American system's permanent structure.

Option 3: Limited government

Limited government refers to a political system where legal restrictions are placed on the powers of government officials, often through a constitution. The American system is characterized by a separation of powers and checks and balances, which limit the ability of any one branch to dominate the government, making "limited government" the correct description.

Option 4: Unitary government

A unitary government is a system where a single central government holds the majority of the power, with any regional authorities having little independent power. This is not applicable to the American system, which is federal in nature.

Option 5: Reflective government

Reflective government is not a standard term used to describe a political system, and it does not specifically relate to the American system's structure.
