You're welcome.

Okay Thank you.

Based on the excerpt from the text, the correct answer to the question is C. Locke's principle of the right to property is represented by the nation becoming one common market because businesses were now able to operate among all the states rather than just within their own state. This aligns with Locke's idea that individuals have the natural right to own and exchange property freely. The Constitution, by giving Congress the power to regulate commerce and encourage the free flow of goods between states, created an environment where businesses could thrive and operate across state lines. This enhanced the ability of individuals to exercise their right to own and trade property.
