Element of a crime (or element of an offense) is one of a set of facts that must all be proven to convict a defendant of a crime. Before a court finds a defendant guilty of a criminal offense, the prosecution must present evidence that, even when opposed by any evidence the defense may choose , is credible and sufficient to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant committed each element of the particular crime charged. The component parts that make up any particular crime vary depending on the crime.

Answer:

A. House of Representatives

C. Senate

Explanation:

The Constitution of the United States of America can be amended because the Founding Fathers believed that there might be reason to in order to ensure that the rights and welfare of all Americans are looked after.

Recognizing the impact a Constitutional amendment could make however, they made the process a bit difficult to ensure that the amendment has enough support.

There are two ways to propose an amendment. The first is through Congress where two-thirds of both Houses of Congress would have to vote in favor of the amendment for it to proceed.

The Second is when two-thirds of States ask Congress to form a National Convention which will then Nominate Amendments.

In the first method, the process of Amendment can begin either in the Senate or the House of Representatives because it will still need a two-thirds vote in either.
