Answer 1

1. The correct answer to the question about why the congressional structure was created by the framers of the Constitution is:

To reach a compromise between large and small states.

This arrangement was established to balance the interests of states with larger populations (which wanted representation based on population) and those with smaller populations (which wanted equal representation).

2. The law that would be considered unconstitutional on the basis of First Amendment guarantees is:

A prohibition on electing religious leaders to government office.

This law would violate the First Amendment's Establishment Clause, which protects against government interference in religious practices and ensures that individuals can freely exercise their religion, including the right to participate in government regardless of their religious affiliation.
