B) 1800s
C) 1900s

C) 1900s
Drug legislation in the United States began in the 1900s. Before that, there was little regulation for the way drugs were manufactured, tested, packaged, or sold. This correct answer rules out the "1950s" as being a possible choice because the first drug legislation occurred early in the century.
