Correct answers: 2 and 4.
- Increasing the state’s population can lead to more seats in the House after reapportionment.
- The number of congressional districts equals the number of representatives, so more districts means more representatives (which only happens if reapportionment gives the state extra seats).
Options 1 and 3 are not correct: another state gaining seats doesn’t cause a given state to gain seats, and each state’s number of senators is fixed at two (by the Constitution).
