Explanation:

The United States Senate is the upper house of the Congress of the United States. Each state is represented by two senators, regardless of their population, who are elected by uninominal majority scrutiny. The Senate chamber is renewed by thirds every six years. In this way a senator lasts 6 years in office, being able to be re-elected.

The House of Representatives of the United States is the lower house of the Congress. Each state obtains representation in the chamber proportional to its population, with the right to a minimum of one representative. The most populous state, California, has 53 representatives. The total number of representatives is currently set at 435 by the Reapportionment Act of 1929, although Congress retains the power to modify that number. Each representative is elected for a period of two years and may be re-elected. The president of the chamber is known as the "Speaker", and is elected by its members.
