Answer 1

Answer:

Option D, It established the power to declare laws unconstitutional, is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Marbury v. Madison was a Supreme Court case in which the U.S. Supreme Court on 24th February 1803, declared an act of the Congress as unconstitutional and therefore established the well-known doctrine of Judicial Review.

The Supreme Court of the United States established the doctrine of Judicial Review by its ruling in the Marbury v. Madison. The decision, in this case, empowered the American courts to strike down the statutes, laws and other actions of the government that violates the U.S. Constitution.
