Answer:

The correct answer is C. The U.S. Constitution contains the provision from the Virginia Plan that the House representation is proportional to population size (although originally the Virginia Plan proposed a proportional representation for the Senate too).

Explanation:

One of the main features of the Virginia Plan, and one of the most controversial issues during the Constitutional Convention, lay in the design of the Legislature. The plan provided for a two-chamber system in which both chambers should be chosen in proportion to the number of inhabitants. The population of each state would choose the lower house directly, which in turn would elect the members of the upper house. This proposal was criticized in particular by the less populous states, which feared a loss of power within the central government. As a counter-proposal, they submitted the New Jersey Plan.

The solution to the conflict came after long debates in the Connecticut Compromise, which also provided for two chambers. The lower house should consist of directly elected representatives (today's House of Representatives). In the upper house, each state should have exactly two representatives appointed by them (the current Senate). From 1913, the senators are elected directly.

A ____ was an area of a city where Jews were segregated during the holocaust.
BaLLatris [955]

A Ghetto,  was the location were Jews during the WW2 were marginated, as the expression of an anti-semitic racial policy of Adolf Hitler that became institutionalized.

Most of the Ghettos were established all over Germany, Poland, parts of France. There the conditions for a living were extremely bad: they lacked the most essential things for a living. Many didn't have good energy and water supply. The security of the neighborhood is also compromised. Many unrest can happen and there is little to be done as authorities will not care. As leaving a Ghetto was illegal, the people escaping them were systematically executed.

Perhaps the most representative Ghetto is the nowadays Warsaw Ghetto, that serves as museum and memorial for Nazi crimes against humanity. This Ghetto once had almost half a million people living on it.

Below you can see how many Ghettos  mostly in East Europe were later transformed into Death Camps:
