Answer 1

Women were respected because they helped create and sustain the world.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Iroquois respected their women greatly because they were the ones who brought them to life. Women are those who have to carry their babies for nine months, take care of themselves in order to preserve the baby's life, sacrifice a lot of things in order to bring the baby safely to this word, which is why this Native American tribe valued women greatly.

They didn't worship them because that would be blasphemy to their gods as women are human, not gods. Options A and B are incorrect because that's a negative view of women that the Iroquois did not have.
