Which is more important to emphasize in a textbook chapter, Soviet achievements in space or Stalin’s Great Terror?
sdas [7]

Both of these are important to emphasize in a textbook chapter, as both of them are fair representations of the role that communist policies had in the Soviet Union.

If we only reported on the achievements in space of the Soviet Union, then we would minimize the damage that certain policies caused. On the other hand, if we only reported on Stalin's Great Terror, then we would be painting a biased and inaccurate picture of the regime. Therefore, it is important to mention both of these events, as well as the many others that defined the Soviet Union during this time period.

States with the largest populations _____. send more representatives to the House send fewer representatives to the House have m
Crank
The best answer is, States with the largest populations send more representatives to the House. 

Members elected to the House of Representatives, which is part of the U.S. Congress, are determined by their state and by the number of constituents in that state. Each state must have at least one elected member to the House of Representatives but can have much more like California, who sends 53 representatives to the nation's capital. This representative process differs from those elected to the Senate, the other half of the U.S. Congress, where each state elects two representatives regardless of population size.
