Question

how does the 14th amendment affect the right to due process?
a it prohibits states from violating the right to equal protection under the law on the basis of race, while excluding women from the privileges of the fifth amendment.

b it expands equal protection under the law to citizens living abroad by forcing foreign countries to recognize the rights guaranteed by the fifth amendment.

c it limits the right to equal protection under the law by allowing states to disregard certain provisions of the fifth amendment.

d it requires all states to enforce the right to equal protection under the law as written in the fifth amendment.

Explanation:

The 14th Amendment's Due Process Clause incorporates many of the Bill of Rights (including the Fifth Amendment's due process and equal protection aspects) to the states. Option D correctly states that it requires states to enforce the equal protection (and due process) rights as in the Fifth Amendment. Option A is wrong as it misstates exclusion of women (the 14th didn't exclude women from Fifth's privileges in that way). Option B is wrong because the 14th applies to states, not foreign countries. Option C is wrong as it limits, but the 14th expands state obligations to follow due process/equal protection.

Answer:

D. It requires all states to enforce the right to equal protection under the law as written in the Fifth Amendment.
