A lot of things. Our check and balance system shares various duties between the Legislative, Executive and Judicial branches. e.g. only Congress can declare war, how ever once declared the Executive is responsible for carry it out. Only the Supreme Court can pass judgement (for Constitutionality) on federal law. The Executive proposes a budget, but only Congress can fund it.

We see more and more "overlapping" these days. Congress wants to make foreign policy, however it's the Executive branch who actually has that duty. Thanks to "The commerce clause" in the Constitution some federal judges feel they have say over EVERYTHING, not just federal law, but they do NOT.
Hope that helps

it cant be changed unless authorized by representatives
Congress was authorized to delegate some policy making to the executive branch. In recent decades, Congress has practically given up its legislative and regulatory authority by delegating most of it to the executive branch.
