Brief Explanations

For Question 6:

  • The right to vote, own property, bring suit, and testify in court are rights often associated with citizenship. Before 1954, non - citizen racial groups in the US were likely to be denied these rights. The right to habeas corpus is a fundamental legal right (though not always fully protected for non - citizens in discriminatory eras, but it's more of a legal process right rather than a citizenship - linked right in the context of the options). Jurisprudence is the theory and philosophy of law (not a right withheld in this context). "E pluribus unum" is a motto. Free speech is a First Amendment right (though there were discriminatory practices against non - whites, it's not as directly tied to citizenship as the voting, property - owning etc. rights in the context of the question). The right to marry (though there were anti - miscegenation laws, it's not the main set of rights withheld in the broad sense of citizenship - related rights). The right to work and get medical care (while there was discrimination, these are more basic human/societal rights rather than strictly citizenship - based rights in the context of the question).

For Question 7:

  • The fact that Congress defined citizenship based on race (first "free white", then including "persons of African descent") shows that race is a social construct. Biological fact would imply a scientific, inherent classification (which race is not in a strict biological sense as there is more genetic variation within racial groups than between them). A questionable fact is too vague. An economic fact would relate to economic systems (not relevant here). A social fact means that race is defined by social, legal, and cultural norms (as shown by the congressional acts defining citizenship based on race).

Answer:

Question 6: right to vote, own property, bring suit, testify in court
Question 7: social fact
