Can you tell me about them?  What is the difference between the two houses?
user
The main difference is the different responsibilities. The House of Representatives has more power over national and local affairs, and the Senate has more power over foreign affairs and states’ rights.  Another difference is that the House has 435 representatives elected every two years, and the Senate has 100 members.

How was the number of representatives determined for the House of Representatives (435 representatives)?
