Answer:
The correct answer is B. It is true that the Soviet Union launched the first satellite to successfully orbit Earth and sent the first person into space.
Explanation:
The Space Race was the competition established between the United States and the Soviet Union for space exploration during Cold War.
On October 4, 1957 the Soviet Union was able to orbit the Sputnik, for the first time in history, orbiting the earth. Although this was officially another scientific act during the International Geophysical Year, the event was welcomed by the United States as a threat to its superiority in the military and communications fields.
Only four months after the launch of Sputnik the Americans launched their first Explorer I satellite and in 1958 they launched SCORE, the first communications satellite.
From then on, outstanding events took place: the first animals, men, women or trips to the outside of the capsule, and so on. The USSR was taking the lead, and the United States immediately responded. But when the objective was to bring an astronaut to the moon, the Soviets began to show signs of weakness.
The official end of the space race took place on July 17, 1975 with the meeting in the space of the crews of the Apollo and Soiuz ships. This was politically significant, as the process of changing the political regime in the USSR had not yet begun.

Hello, the number of terms may vary per country, but seeing that the options match that of the US government, I will assume that the question is in the context of the United States.
4. In the US, each member of the House of Representatives is entitled to a two-year term. They can, however, be elected as a Representative for an unlimited number of times thus there is no limit to the number of terms they can serve.
ANSWER: H. House of Representatives
5. The choices presented in this item do not show a definite answer but we can just find the best choice through the process of elimination. Among those presented, we can only see a four-year term on that of the Executive Branch, with both President and Vice President serving four years in a single term.
ANSWER: A. Executive Branch
6. Finally, the part of the US government which is given a chance to serve for 6 years in a single term is the Senate. Like the members of the House of Representatives, Senators can also be re-elected for an unlimited number of times, however they just serve longer before needing to be re-elected.
ANSWER: J. Senate
