The correct answer is:
**B. Plessy v. Ferguson created the separate but equal doctrine and Brown v. Board ended the separate but equal doctrine in public education.**
This statement accurately reflects the historical impact of both Supreme Court cases. Plessy v. Ferguson (1896) upheld the constitutionality of racial segregation under the "separate but equal" doctrine, while Brown v. Board of Education (1954) ruled that racial segregation in public schools was unconstitutional, effectively overturning the separate but equal doctrine in the context of education.
