The correct response is: **Each state has two Senators. Each state has a different number of Representatives, based on its population.**
In the U.S. Congress, each state is allotted two Senators regardless of its population, while the number of Representatives each state has in the House of Representatives is determined by the state's population relative to the total population of the U.S. This system ensures equal representation in the Senate and proportional representation in the House.
