Answer (2)
The Fourteenth Amendment, ratified in 1868, enacted protections for individual rights, including the application of the Bill of Rights to the states. It ensured that freedoms such as religion would not be infringed by state laws. The case Mapp v. Ohio is principally associated with the exclusionary rule, which safeguards the rights of the accused by disallowing illegally obtained evidence. ;
The correct answer to the question about the Fourteenth Amendment is C: the Bill of Rights began to be applied to the states. This amendment marked a crucial step in extending individual rights protections at the state level. Additionally, the Miranda v. Arizona case is associated with the requirement that suspects be informed of their rights, protecting them against self-incrimination.
