Answer: The correct option is A: "The Supremacy Clause in the United States Constitution took some sovereignty away from individual States by declaring the Nation's law supreme.

Step-by-step explanation:

Article VI, Paragraph 2 of the U.S. Constitution commonly known as Supremacy Clause establishes that:

  • Federal Constitution and Federal laws are above State laws.
  • Local governments cannot interfere with the Federal Constitution or Federal laws.
  • Local governments cannot assume any function of Federal Constitution or Federal laws.

That is why, it is claimed that the states lost some sovereignty with this supreme law.
