Question

when trying officials who have been impeached by the house of representatives, the senate conducts the impeachment trial. the senate committee acts as prosecutor. the president pro tempore presides over the trial. the senate has the power to convict with a three - fourths vote.

Explanation:

Under U.S. constitutional rules, the House impeaches federal officials, and the Senate holds the subsequent impeachment trial. Senate committees do not act as prosecutors, the Chief Justice presides over presidential impeachment trials (not the president pro tempore), and conviction requires a two-thirds Senate vote, not three-fourths.

Answer:

the Senate conducts the impeachment trial.
