True or False: Senators are appointed by the Governor General on the advice of the Prime Minister and serve until the age of 75.

  1. True

  2. False

The correct answer is: True

Senators are not appointed by the Governor General on the advice of the Prime Minister, thus option B is incorrect. Instead, senators are appointed by the Governor General on the advice of the Prime Minister and this appointment process is based on the recommendations made by the Prime Minister himself. Additionally, senators do not necessarily serve until the age of 75. They can either choose to serve until the age of 75 or can retire earlier, as per their own personal decision. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
