A constituency is a body of people able to elect a representative. It can also be defined as an electoral district.

So basically, the size of a constituency can range from small (only two or three people voting) to large (tens of thousands of people voting).

How does a typical senators constituency differ from that of a representative in the house?

Senators are elected by state, not by district. (Most representatives represent only a portion of a state, though the least populous states may have only one representative.) For the majority of representatives, then, they are representing a fairly small (in population, not necessarily size) group of people, who are most likely rather more homogeneous in their culture, economic status, and interests than the constituency of a senator.
