the Senate maintains several powers to itself: it ratifies treaties by a two-thirds supermajority vote and confirms the appointments of the President by a majority vote. the consent of the House of Representatives is also necessary for the ratification of trade agreements and the confirmation of the Vice President.

so, b would be your answer :)
