During the constitutional convention, small states such as new jersey argued that
[a] a state's congressional representation should be based on its geographic size.
[b] each state should decide for itself the number of representatives it has.
[c] all states should have same number of congressional representatives
[d] a state's congressional representation should be based on its population.

The correct answer is C) All states should have same number of congressional representatives.

Explanation:

New Jersey wanted equal representatives for all States, regardless of the geographic size of the State or it's population.

New Jersey believed this was fair, gave each State an each representative and at the same time, provided a degree of Independence from the Federal Government.

However, this proposal was eventually rejected and eventually a new deal was reached which is now known as the Connecticut Compromise.  A ratified form of this deal is currently included as part of the Constitution.

the correct answer option is: weapons.

explanation:

tensions rose as the two opposing superpowers competed for 'weapons'.

referring to the cold war (1945-1991), the two superpowers, usa and ussr, experienced a phase of struggle and conflict with each other. these two superpowers considered each other as a threat to their survival and thus opted for policies to strengthen their positions.

the two superpowers never went to war with each other directly but competed for weapons to preserve their positions.
