The correct answer is B. He was a slave

Explanation:

Dred Scott was an enslaved African-American that sue his master to get his freedom and the freedom of his family arguing he had been taken from Missouri that was a territory in which slavery was legal to the Missouri territory which was a territory in which slavery had been banned and where Scott had lived for four years.

Answer: A. The Constitution establishes the qualifications for congressional representatives, as well as specific rules for their election.

We have a two-house or "bicameral" legislature. The number of representatives in the House of Representatives are based on each state's population size. In the Senate, each states gets two Senators.

The bicameral legislature plan was devised at the United States Constitutional Convention in 1787. The large population states wanted representation in Congress to be based on a state's population size. The smaller states feared this would lead to unchecked dominance by the big states; they wanted all states to receive the same amount of representation. The "Great Compromise" (as it became known) created a bicameral (two-chamber) legislature. Representation in the House of Representatives would be based on population. In the Senate, all states would have the same amount of representation, by two Senators.

The quoted section in the Constitution (as shown here) lays out the qualifications for House of Representatives members and rules for their election.
