Step-by-step explanation:

1.The New Jersey Plan was a proposal for the structure of the United States Government presented by William Paterson at the Constitutional Convention on June 15, 1787. The plan was created in response to the Virginia Plan, which called for two houses of Congress, both elected with apportionment according to population.

2.The Three-fifths Compromise was a compromise reached among state delegates during the 1787 United States Constitutional Convention

3.

Federalism is a mixed or compound mode of government that combines a general government with regional governments in a single political system. Its distinctive feature, exemplified in the Constitution of the United States, is a relationship of parity between the two levels of government established.

4.The three branches of the US federal government are Legislative, Executive and Judicial branches.
