You were right the first time.

You are correct! A term in the House of Representatives is indeed 2 years. To determine the length of a term, you can refer to the United States Constitution. In Article I, Section 2, it states that members of the House of Representatives shall be elected "for two years." This means that representatives serve a 2-year term before they have to stand for re-election. So, option b, 2 years, is the correct answer.
