Answer: C. The U.S. Constitution created a legislative house that would be  elected directly by the people.

Explanation:

The concept of Popular Sovereignty calls for the government of a nation to be chosen by the people they govern in elections and if they cannot perform adequately, the people had the right to remove them from power.

This concept is enshrined in the Constitution of the United States because there are two branches of government that have to be voted in by the people and that is the Legislature and the Executive through the President.

The Legislature are voted in by the people to represent them and if they don't perform, they will be removed in another election.
