If all proposed bills were sent directly to the full house for a vote without going through committees, the main benefit would be a quicker decision-making process and increased transparency. This would ensure that all members have a say in the legislation, potentially leading to more representativeness. However, there are drawbacks. Without committee review, bills may not undergo thorough examination, resulting in lower quality legislation. Furthermore, the sheer number of bills for a full house vote may overwhelm members, causing inefficiency and a lack of specialized expertise.
Proposed legislation bills can be defeated by opponents after they have been introduced. The members of the House of Representatives or the Senate can vote down the proposed bills.

If by houses you mean the senate and the house of representatives, of the house of commons and the house of lords, the Romans did not have equivalents. They did not elect politicians to vote on bills on their behalf. The Roman senate gave advice on law formulation and issued decrees, but it did not vote on bills and was not an elected body. Bills were voted on directly by the people. Initially this was done in the assembly of the soldiers and the assembly of the tribes. Later this was done mainly in the plebeian council. At the beginning of the Republic the consuls (the two heads of state) proposed bills. Later the plebeian tribunes became the main proposers of legislation.
