Question 1
The correct order of how a bill becomes a law is: First, the bill is introduced (d). Then it is sent to committee (c). Next, it is debated on the floor of congress (b). After that, it goes to the other house (f), then sent to committee in the other house (e), debated on the floor of the other house (g), and finally goes to the president (a). So the order is d:1, c:2, b:3, f:4, e:5, g:6, a:7 (note: the original options have a - g, so numbering from 1 - 7 with d=1, c=2, b=3, f=4, e=5, g=6, a=7).
The rules committee is a committee in the House of Representatives. The Senate does not have a rules committee in the same way; it has different committee structures. So the correct option is a.
To run for the House of Representatives, the minimum age is 25. For the Senate, it is 30, and for President, it is 35. So at 25, one can run for the House of Representatives.
