a. It outlined the principles behind the call for independence.

The introduction of the Declaration of Independence is just one sentence in length and provides the reasons why the colonists are declaring themselves independent. In addition it adds the principle of God as a support and reason for the declaration.

The Declaration of Independence contains five parts beginning with the introduction. The Preamble follows and provides the principles or ideas why the colonists are rebelling. The next section describes the wrongdoings of George III and what made him a bad leader. Following that is a critique of the English government providing the reasons why the government was not fit to support the colonies. Lastly, the final section is a conclusion to complete the argument and reasoning for the colonies declaring independence.

The option (a) is correct. The introduction to the Declaration of Independence outlined the principles behind the call for independence.
