    B) led to the loss of tribal lands and the erosion of Indian cultural traditions.

    Explanation:

    The purpose of the Dawes Act was to treat Native Americans as individuals and not as members of a tribe. It outlawed tribal ownership, assigning land lots to individual Native Americans, but those lots were usually too small for individual agriculture. The result of the Dawes Act was that more than ninety million acres of tribal land ended up in the hands of non Native Americans.
