Through the Great Compromise came a bicameral legislature that used different ideas from both the Virginia and New Jersey Plans. There would be "two houses" the lower and upper.
The lower house later became known as the House of Representatives. Representatives in this house were elected directly by the people of America. The upper house became the Senate, the election of senators was done by the legislatures of each state.
"The President was granted the power to appoint officials, including judges, the power to veto legislation, and the role of Commander-In-Chief of the military."
