F9

a. The majority party in the House is able to select the speaker of the house, who is the most powerful member in the house.
b. The Senate is allowed to filibuster, while the House is not. A filibuster is done to prevent the senate from taking action on a bill by talking for a long period of time. A filibuster makes it harder to pass a bill.
c. With the allowance of a filibuster in the Senate, the House is more likely to pass legislation than the Senate. The filibuster allows for delays with passing bills. The House has a set amount of time a bill can be discussed, making faster to pass legislation.
