recent court decisions in the united states involving the paternal rights of unwed presumed fathers established that
○ paternity rights are biologically based.
○ paternity rights depend on his legally adopting the children.
○ paternity rights depend on his establishing an ongoing relationship with the childs mother.
○ the biological mother has to acknowledge a man as her childs father before he has any rights.

Explanation:

In the United States, for an unwed presumed father, paternity rights are not just based on biology. Adopting (which is a legal process for non - biological parents in most cases, but here we are talking about a presumed father) is not the main factor. Also, the rights are not solely dependent on the relationship with the mother. The key is that the biological mother's acknowledgment (either through legal means like signing a paternity acknowledgment form) is a crucial step before an unwed presumed father can claim rights. This is in line with legal procedures to establish paternity clearly.

Answer:

the biological mother has to acknowledge a man as her child's father before he has any rights.
