What describes the House of Commons?

A chamber solely for passing budgets
The upper house of Parliament
Made up of members elected by the people, traditionally every four years
A chamber that includes appointed members only

The correct answer is: Made up of members elected by the people, traditionally every four years

The House of Commons is the name of the lower house of Parliament in the United Kingdom, Canada, and several other countries. This option correctly describes the composition of the House of Commons, as its members are elected by the people and serve for a term of four years. Option A is incorrect because the House of Commons does not solely pass budgets, but also debates and passes laws. Option B is incorrect because the House of Commons is the lower house of Parliament, while the upper house is the House of Lords. Option D is incorrect because the House of Commons is not made up of appointed members, but rather elected ones.
