Explanation:

1. House of Representatives: Representatives are elected by congressional districts. Edwin is in California's 12th district, Amy in the 52nd. Different districts mean different House representatives. So "Edwin and Amy share a representative in the House" is false, and "Edwin and Amy have different representatives in the House" is true.
2. Senate: Each state has two senators, and all residents of the state share those senators. Edwin and Amy are both in California, so they share the same two senators. Thus, "Edwin and Amy share a senator" is true, and "Edwin and Amy have different senators" is false.

Answer:

B. Edwin and Amy share a senator
C. Edwin and Amy have different representatives in the House
