The House of Representatives is larger.

The House proportionally represents the nation as a whole, taking state representatives by state population. The House contains a max of 435 voting participants. On the other hand, the Senate allows only two representatives per state, meaning there can be a max of 100 applicable participants at a time, since there are 50 US States. Therefore, the House is larger.

Hope this helped! :)
