It can differ in one or more atoms, functional groups, or substructures, which are replaced with other atoms, groups, or substructures.
The Founders realized that representation was the most important aspect of republicanism. Therefore, the United States established a bicameral legislature for two reasons. First, two chambers of Congress ensure that the states are equally and adequately represented. Second, a bicameral legislature acts as a primary function of separation of powers. The American Revolution, and the years preceding, established the mindset of the Founders.
