What are the two parts of the U.S. Congress?

• A. The Senate and House of Representatives
• B. The Senate and the President
• C. The House and Senate
• D. The Cabinet

Answer: (A)

Congress is a bicameral body, consisting of two chambers: the Senate and the House of Representatives. This structure creates two separate assemblies that must both approve legislation, with the Senate giving equal representation to each state (two senators per state) and the House representing the population more directly (435 voting members based on population). Together, these two chambers make up the legislative branch of the U.S. government, while the President and the Cabinet belong to the executive branch.
