Explanation:

-The House of Representatives of the United States is the lower house of Congress. It is the most representative chamber of the Congress, therefore, its representation is proportional to the population of each State. Therefore, it is affected by Gerrymandering, which modifies the electoral districts according to political convenience.

The House of Representatives is led by the Speaker, who is the third in the line of presidential succession. As it is the people's chamber, it is the one that has the power to impeach public officials who have committed crimes during their functions. In addition, for this same reason, it is the chamber that can introduce tax bills.

-The United States Senate is the chamber of Congress that exercises a control and balance function over the President. It is led by the Vice President, and within it the representation is equal for each state, regardless of its population, so it is not affected by the Gerrymandering phenomenon. As part of its function of control over the President, he ratifies all the nominations he makes and the treaties that he signs.
