Can someone please help me??

Based on the passage from the Constitution of the State of Arkansas of 1874, the following ideas are supported:

A. The government of Arkansas is there to serve the people of Arkansas.
B. The people have the right to alter the government if they think they need to.

These ideas are highlighted in the phrase "All political power is inherent in the people and government is instituted for their protection, security, and benefit; and they have the right to alter, reform or abolish the same, in such manner as they may think proper." which means that the government's purpose is to protect and benefit the people, and the people have the right to change or remove the government if they deem it necessary.

However, it is important to note that the passage does not explicitly mention the government of Arkansas being the supreme authority in the state (C) or that the government knows what is best for the people of Arkansas (D).
