Answer:

B. Puerto Ricans pay u.s. taxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

All of the statements are entirely true except B. While Puerto Ricans must pay some federal taxes they are not required to pay any income taxes like listed on the chart. Puerto Ricans are considered US citizens, so they can serve in the military. However, since Puerto Rico is not a state it has no electoral colleges and therefore they cannot vote in the presidential election.
