Explicación
## Step 1The problem is a comprehension question based on a legal case, Grutter v. Bollinger (2003). The case involved the Supreme Court addressing the admissions policy of the University of Michigan Law School. The Supreme Court ruled that the university's race-conscious admissions program did not unduly harm non-minority applicants.## Step 2The options provided are: A) national supremacy, B) judicial review, C) selective incorporation, and D) affirmative action. We need to identify which of these options is the primary issue in the Grutter v. Bollinger decision.## Step 3The primary issue in the Grutter v. Bollinger decision is the university's race-conscious admissions program, which is a form of affirmative action. Affirmative action refers to policies that take factors including "race, color, religion, sex, or national origin" into consideration in order to benefit an underrepresented group "in areas in which the group is underrepresented in relation to the population at large".## Step 4The other options, A) national supremacy, B) judicial review, and C) selective incorporation, do not directly relate to the primary issue in the Grutter v. Bollinger decision.
