Answer:

The policy matters that discussed by standing committee only address specific issue that targeted to a specific group of citizens. After finally decided the type of legislation that they should made to address the issue, the members of the standing committee would be adjourned.

2.A  All new bills must pass through this committee.

To be a member of the house, an individuals had to be 25 years old or older. To be a member of the senate, that individuals should be at least 30 years old. The size of constituencies for the senate is larger among the two because each senate represent one single state.

7.D   making laws

The legislative branch would gather data regarding the issues that currently faced by the american people and formulate a law to address it. These issues could be a social or economical one.

For the law to be passed, the legislative branch need to conduct a vote among its members regarding the law. It would be passed if it managed to reach a simple majority.

8.A   They serve two ­year terms. Campaining is more important than legislating.

Since they are most likely to be replaced every two years, the house representatives members would be more concerned for their future positions in the house. They would aimed to achieve results early as a way to improve their reputation during their campaign to the public regardless of the long term result.

9.C   Congressional districts were drawn to favor rural areas.

In rural area, there would be lest amount of total population. This means if the rural and urban district has the same number of representative in the congress, the votes of one single voter in rural area worth much more compared to the vote of a single voter in urban area.

10.B to have a system of checks on power
