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.

How come Russia was mostly Orthodox Christian, but western Europe was Catholic in the 1600s? If you can please get the answer to
Firlakuza [10]

Christianity is the largest religion in Europe. Christianity has been practiced in Europe since the 1st century, and a number of the Pauline Epistles were addressed to Christians living in Greece, as well as the Roman Empire.

According to a survey by the Pew Research Center in 2012, found that 76.2% of Europeans considered themselves Christians.

Catholics were at the time of the survey the largest Christian group in Europe, accounting for more than 48% of European Christians.The second-largest Christian group in Europe were the Orthodox, who made up 32% of European Christians.Although the Protestant Reformation began in Europe, only about 19% of European Christians were part of the Protestant tradition. Russia is the largest Christian country in Europe by population, followed by Germany and Italy.

For at least a millennium and a half, Europe has been nearly equivalent to Christian culture, even though the religion was inherited from the Middle East. Christian culture was the predominant force in Western civilization, guiding the course of philosophy, art, and science.

Europe has a rich Christian culture, especially as numerous saints, martyrs and popes were European themselves. All of the popes from 741 to 2013 were from Europe. Europe brought together many of the Christian holy sites and heritage and religious centers.

What roles did newly arrived immigrants play in the economy during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries?
Nata [24]
Newly arrived immigrants in some ways caused a lot of trouble to the economy. Especially for people who already lived in the area. One example of this is that immigrants created a lot of competition for jobs. Not to mention we didn't have t he money to fully support the ever growing amount of immigrants as well ( that why as many as 12 lived in 1 home).

The possible meaning or meanings behind the story of Pandora.
expeople1 [14]
I'm gonna assume you know the story. If not PM me and I can try to explain.

The meaning of the story of Pandora was to explain why their is evil in the world, and was used to teach young children not to let their curiosity get the best of them. But most importantly it also goes along the lines of "curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back" because although by opening the box Pandora let out all the bad things we have today, Pandora relied her mistake and closed the box before hope could escape ( if it had escaped the sins would have destroyed it, leaving no good in the world, cause without hope, what good is their?) So although she released all evils, she protected the good, after realizing her mistake.         

Hope that helped! PM me if you need me to better explain!
