The Constitution sets the powers of Congress in Article I, Section 8 of the United States Constitution. These are called expressed powers, powers carefully listed in the Constitution. The only difference in the two houses is that all money bills must originate in the House of Representatives. Also, to become a law, a bill must be approved by both houses in exactly the same form.

How is senate and house of commons are almost similar?
If you are talking about the house of commons in England. First of all, congress in the US is split into 2 seperate groups, the house of representatives (amount of reps. per state determined by population) and the senate (same amount of reps. per state, 2 each) the parliament on the other hand is separated into the house of lords (the equivalent of the senate) and the house of commons (equivalent to the house of reps.) so the similarity are very few, the senate is the "upper house" and the house of commons is a "lower house". the only similarity is that they both run the government.
