The certificate hierarchy for the google.com certificate shows that it
is signed by the two "Verisign Class 3 Public Primary Certification
Authority" certificates.

If you uncheck the box for "Trust for verifying web sites" for these
two certificates, then reload the https://google.com page, the browser
is no longer able to verify the certificate.
