Default Civics Questions! The Constitution?

Were 3 Junior's who are suffering with these questions because our teacher is out to be a daddy in the house. So were in class having no idea of questions he left.<br /><br /><br />What is the length of a term of office for members of the U.S. house of representatives?<br /><br />How old must one be to be elected to be elected to the U.S house of representatives?<br /><br />Who has power to propose the law to raise revenue? (a law tax)<br /><br />Who has the sole power of impeachment?<br /><br />How old must one be to be elected to the United States Senate?<br />Who must approve any treaties that are made with foreign countries?<br /><br />Who has the sole power to try to bring trial all impeachments?<br /><br />Who has legislative powers? Who has the power to declare war?<br /><br />Who has the poer to approve or veto laws?<br />Thanks to everyone!<br />
