Answer:

Congress made up of a Senate and a House of Representatives

Step-by-step explanation:

During the constitutional convention of 1787, the Virginia plan by James Madison proposed a bicameral legislature with proportionate representation, this was in contrast with the New Jersey plan by William Paterson which proposed a unicameral legislature with equal representation in the congress. to solve this problem, Roger Sherman proposed the Connecticut compromise which blended the Virginia ad New Jersey plan and resulted in the congress and senate.
