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.

Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia. Explain how this led to the conflict becoming the Great War.​
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

When Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia, it led to Russia declaring war on Austria-Hungary as well because Russia was in an alliance with Serbia.

Germany which had an alliance with Austria-Hungary via the Triple Alliance then declared war on Russia.

Russia was already in an alliance with Great Britain and France known as the Triple Entente and when Germany declared war on Russia, Great Britain and France declared war on Germany.

Thus began the Great War.
