Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The presiding officer of the House of Representatives is SPEAKER of the House

The presiding officer of the Senate is Vice President

2. The presiding officer of the Senate is more powerful than the presiding officer of the house because of these reasons:

The position is the first in a line of succession to President of the United States.

He also acts as the tiebreaker to the final decision made in the senate.

The Senate has the final legislative approval to a bill, in which the presiding officer leads in the approval process.
