To a full committee
Between each step for a bill to become a law, that bill can die. These are considered "vetoes". For example: in a committee the bill can be shot down before it makes it to the subcommittee.

to appoint committee members
A committee or subcommittee reviews the bill and suggests amendments if needed. The subcommittee or committee will then accept or reject the bill. If the subcommittee accepts the bill, it is then forwarded as is to the committee. When the committee accepts the bill, it will issue in an official report or official bill print.
In a subcommittee's consideration of a bill, the process typically involves three key steps: Hearing: The subcommittee holds hearings to gather information, where experts, stakeholders, and the public can provide testimony and insights regarding the bill's implications. Mark-Up: After hearings, the subcommittee engages in a mark-up session, where members review the bill in detail, propose amendments, and vote on changes to refine the legislation. Report: Finally, the subcommittee prepares a report summarizing its findings, recommending whether the bill should proceed to the full committee, and outlining any amendments made during the mark-up.

The majority leadership selects the committee Standing Commitee
Yes, a subcommittee can be a committee of the whole. While it is possible, it is usually stupid. The purpose of a subcommittee is to study an issue in depth, to bring back a report, and present the research to back it up. If the subcommittee does its job, it keeps the committee's discussion from being a pooling of ignorance. Usually committees divide up work among subcommittees. If you are going to have a subcommittee be a committee of the whole, why have a subcommittee?

When a subcommittee reads its recommendation to the rest of their house of Congress
When a bill is referred to a House committee, it undergoes a detailed examination where committee members discuss, amend, and evaluate its provisions. If deemed appropriate, the bill may be sent to a subcommittee for more focused analysis and hearings, allowing for expert testimony and stakeholder input. Following this review, the subcommittee can recommend further amendments or send the bill back to the full committee for consideration. The committee then decides whether to advance the bill to the House floor for a vote.
Markup is a process in which a subcommittee or a committee revises a bill that has been introduced. The committee also considers the bill in this process.
