    The correct answer is A. The Great White Roots represent the peace and strength of the Iroquois Confederacy.

    Explanation:

    The Great Law of Peace of the six tribes of the Iroquois Confederation was the oral constitution with which they confederated. The Great Law of Peace consisted of 117 articles and assigned each tribe a role in government. The united Iroquois were symbolized by an Eastern white pine known as the Peace Tree, therefore, the Great White Roots of this tree symbolized the peace under which the native peoples united, and the strength that that union meant to them.
