Question

8 the declaration of independence reflects john locke’s idea of (1.4) pick two correct answers a to protect \life, liberty and estate\ b a naturalistic account of the various forms of government c consent of the governed d separation of powers e states rights

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  1. Analyze Option A: John Locke proposed natural rights as "life, liberty, and estate" (later rephrased as "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" in the Declaration of Independence), so this reflects his idea.
  2. Analyze Option C: Locke's social contract theory includes the idea that government exists with the "consent of the governed", which is reflected in the Declaration's focus on the people's right to alter government.
  3. Eliminate other options: B (Locke didn't focus on naturalistic accounts of government forms), D (separation of powers is Montesquieu's idea), E (states' rights isn't a core Locke idea reflected here).

Answer:

A. to protect "life, liberty and estate", C. consent of the governed
