How does tessera put certain people at a disadvantage in the hunger games?
Tessera is when you have to put your name in extra times in exchange for food and living supplies such as paraffin for candles and such. If you had 5 other members in your family, you would have to put your name in way more times in exchange for the extra supplies. Having a tessera increases your chance of getting your name drawn.

A tessera certain people at a disadvantage in the hunger games?
Tessera is available to children between the ages of 12 and 18. The children can volunteer to have their names put into the reaping more than they normally would for a very meager supply of oil and grain. You are legible for tessera for you and each member of your family. Gale, for example, has four family members that he provides for and once you put your name in it doesn't come out. So when you are 12 you only have 1 name in if you don't have any tesserae. This adds one each year. So when Gale was 12 he had his name in 6 times. So yes, it does give people a disadvantage because if you were poor, like Katniss and Gale then you wouldn't really have a choice but to put your name in to support you family. So most 12 year olds have their name in once but if you have five family members that you need to feed and you get them each tesserae you will have a better chance of being picked and that, obviously, is a disadvantage.

What is a terrasse in the hunger games?
Tessera was a year's supply of food and oil. It could be given to kids age 12 to 18, the ages in which you have to be in order to be selected in the Games. You can even get more tessera for each member of your family. The only catch is that you have to put your names in more times, making your chances of being in the Games higher, and for nearly all districts, being selected for the Games was pretty much a death sentence.
