The correct answer is letter D

The decision deals with some problems, such as the relationship between the Union and States, the sovereignty of States, the harmful power of taxation and the US federal regime itself. The decision in McCulloch v. Maryland was responsible for enshrining the "theory of implicit powers", used by the Federal Supreme Court on some occasions.
