    The most important is the Constitution of the United States. Following it is the work of Congress - which is bound by the Constitution (so the first number will be 4, then 2).

    After that comes the state laws: first the constitution of states (5), then state laws and city and county ordinances.

    The correct answer is A. 4, 2, 5, 1, 3
