Question

2 what happens if a bill receives 210 \yea\ votes in the house of representatives? a the bill is sent to the president for his signature b the bill is defeated in the house c the bill is sent to a special senate committee d the supreme court must decide whether the bill is constitutional or not

Explanation:

The House of Representatives has 435 members. A majority (more than half) is needed to pass a bill. Half of 435 is 217.5, so a majority requires at least 218 votes. Since 210 is less than 218, the bill does not get a majority and is defeated in the House. Option A is incorrect because 210 is not a majority to pass it to the President. Option C is incorrect as a bill with 210 "yea" votes (defeated in the House) wouldn't be sent to a Senate committee. Option D is incorrect because the Supreme Court reviews constitutionality after a law is passed, not at this stage of a bill in the House.

Answer:

B. The bill is defeated in the House
