Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Gibbons v. Ogden established the supremacy of the national government in all matters affecting interstate commerce, which became the basis for the federal government's regulation of commerce under the Commerce Clause of the Constitution. It did not develop the concept of judicial review, dual citizenship, or address the forced relocation of Native American tribes.
