What is one qualification to serve as a member of the US House of Representatives?

  1. 21 years

  2. 25 years

  3. 30 years

  4. 35 years

The correct answer is: 25 years

The correct qualification to serve as a member of the US House of Representatives is 25 years of age. This is the minimum age requirement stated in the US Constitution for someone to be eligible to serve as a representative. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they all state ages that are either too young or too old to meet this requirement. Option A states 21 years of age, which is the legal voting age in the United States and applies to all citizens, not just members of the House of Representatives. Option C states 30 years of age, which is not the correct age requirement for serving in the House of Representatives. Option D states 35 years of age, which is actually the age requirement for serving as a US Senator, not a House Representative. Therefore, the correct answer is B 25 years of age.
