Answer:
The correct answer is A. Controversy between the Virginia Plan and the New Jersey Plan of congressional representation was settled with "The Great Compromise".
Explanation:
The Great Compromise, or Connecticut Compromise of 1787, merged the Virginia Plan that favored population-based representation, and the New Jersey Plan, which listed each state as an equal.
It established a bicameral system: one chamber in favor of the Virginia Plan, based on the population of the States, and the other in accordance with the New Jersey Plan, by which all States voted in equality.
This was an important issue in the new United States. The small States, with a small population, wanted their voices to be heard in the federal government, as well as those of large states with a large population, such as Virginia or New York. With its plan, Virginia wanted to have greater representation because a large percentage of the American population lived in that state. In this way it would have control over what happened in the country.
