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.

In your opinion, was Shi Huangdi a good ruler? Explain
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

In my opinion he was not a good ruler because he was a tyrant

Explanation:

I said he was not a good ruler because of tyranny. He made every forms of religion to be outlawed because he wanted people's loyalty, obedience and allegiance to be with the government alone. This makes him dictator who took away people's freedom.

He ordered for the destruction of all books that existed before his rule just so that his rule and Qin dynasty would be established as history's first. Those who did not bring their books for destruction paid with their lives.
