Answer:

The answer is "Option A"

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a terminated military rule, which is used to set up a civilian society and empowered the President to nominate a Puerto Rican governor and representatives of a governing party parliament. That's why the Foraker Act gave Puerto Ricans just limited citizenship instead of full citizenship. It made this island's legality arbitrary.
