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.

Answer:

Option: Building a timeline of English, French, and Spanish colonies in North America.  

Explanation:

Before the arrival of European, America was inhabitant by the Native population. After Columbus arrival in 1492, many European powers began to arrive to acquire wealth and land for the crown. Many colonies established for settlers in America.

The decline of the Native population in the United States from the 15th to 17th centuries varies. The Native population began to decline as there was frequent conflict related to the confiscated of the land by the colonists. Many Natives died after coming into contact with Europeans because of the diseases which they were not immune. Disease like smallpox, cholera, malaria, chickenpox, measles, scarlet fever killed thousands of people. The superior weapons like guns and gunpowder helped win battles against the Native Americans.
