Answer:

The correct answer is option D. "New York".

Step-by-step explanation:

The New Jersey Plan was a government proposition to restore the unicameral structure from the Articles of Confederation by giving one vote per state in Congress. This plan is based upon the premise that every state have the same right and weight in Congress. The delegates of New York would likely oppose to this plan because New York has the right to have 27 U.S. House seats. If the government decide to follow The New Jersey Plan, the number of seats that represent New York would be lowered to just one seat.
