The appropriate choice that belongs in the empty cell for the resolution of the Connecticut Compromise is:

A House and Senate, one representing all states equally, and one representing based on population.

This compromise created a bicameral legislature with the House of Representatives based on population (favoring larger states) and the Senate with equal representation for each state (favoring smaller states).
