The correct option is B): Representatives are based on a state´s population.

The House members are called the Representatives. Since 1911 there is a fixed number of representatives which is 435.

Every state should be represented in the House,the United States House of Representatives, according to its population. Nevertheless, by law, each state should be represented by at least one member.
