Answer

Brief Explanations:

Roger Sherman proposed the Great Compromise (Connecticut Compromise) which created a bicameral legislature with equal representation for each state in the Senate and proportional representation in the House of Representatives, achieving balanced and proportionate representation. John Jay was a Founding Father known mainly for his work on the Federalist Papers and as the first Chief - Justice. James Wilson was an advocate for a strong central government and was involved in drafting the Constitution but not specifically for this compromise. George Mason was known for his work on the Virginia Declaration of Rights and his opposition to the Constitution without a Bill of Rights.
