Hi there!

The United States has a bicameral Congress because it is a compromise between the smaller and larger states. The larger states wanted the congress to be based on population, and the smaller states wanted it based on equality.

FOUR DIFFERENCES:
1. House of Representatives is based on population, while the Senate is based on equality
2. Representatives serve for 6-year terms in the Senate, while they can only serve 2-year terms in the House of Representatives
3. You must be at least 30 years old to serve in the Senate, while the minimum age is 25 in the House of Representatives
4. In order to be a part of the Senate, you must be a citizen for at least 14 years. In order to be a part of the House or Representatives, you must be a citizen for at least 7 years.

Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!

The Green Revolution will emerge in the 1960s after the release of Rachel Carson's book Silent Spring. This book showed the damaging impact people had on the environment. Efforts would produce a return to more natural methods as well as recycling programs. In the 1970's, Nixon introduced Earth Day and created the EPA.
The space program was created as an extension to the arms race with the USSR. Rocket technology helped to create the NASA program which was a federal means of producing innovation for both war and space travel. This drive became an important part of the Cold War and the ability to show the USSR that the US was more advanced and more intelligent.
