Quaker women in colonial Pennsylvania could **B. preach and serve as missionaries.**

While Quaker women had more freedom and rights compared to Puritan women, options A and C would not be accurate for all women in the Quaker tradition, as property ownership and wage retention could vary. Additionally, women did not have the right to vote or run for public office at that time, so option D is also incorrect.
