The correct answer is B. William Penn wrote the Pennsylvania state constitution.

Explanation:

William Penn created a government that, unlike Europe at this time, guaranteed rights such as separation and limitation of political powers and freedom of worship, free trade within the colony, along with a spirit of solidarity and generosity which sought social equality in rights and equity in opportunities for material prosperity and greater respect for civil liberties. He stressed the demand for the dignity of women and their active participation in public life, the absence of an army, peaceful coexistence with Native Americans and their free entry into the colonist territories, with great influence of the anti-authoritarian ethics of Quakerism.

The formula of government initially consisted of an assembly where all the inhabitants participated according to the Quaker ideal of human equality. But a wave of crimes, starting in 1698, shook Pennsylvania and forced a deep reform. It was established a new bill of rights, that was so tough that the King's Private Council rejected it. In 1701 a new constitution was granted in which William Penn himself had the right to appoint the governor and a council. The legislative power lay in an assembly of four members who were representatives of each county.
