Solution

The correct option is A Horizontal
The three organs of the government are the legislature, executive and judiciary. They are placed at the same level yet they can exercise different powers allotted to them. They can also check and balance each other's functions. This is called horizontal power-sharing. Hence, Option A is correct. The other forms of power-sharing are not applicable to the government, hence, incorrect.
