Explanation:

First Question (How does limited government in North America protect individual rights?):

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• "By allowing the government to ignore citizen complaints" is incorrect as ignoring complaints would not protect rights.
• "Through a written constitution that limits government power" is correct because a limited government in North America (e.g., US, Canada) uses constitutions to restrict government authority, thus safeguarding individual rights from overreach.
• "By giving unlimited authority to law enforcement" is incorrect as unlimited authority would likely violate rights.
• "Through a system where only wealthy citizens have rights" is incorrect as limited government aims for equal rights, not wealth - based rights.

• "Pay taxes": Mandatory, as U.S. citizens must pay federal, state, and local taxes.
• "Vote": Voluntary in the U.S., not mandatory.
• "Jury Duty": Mandatory, citizens may be called to serve on juries to ensure fair trials.
• "Contact their representative": Voluntary, a civic responsibility but not mandatory.

Answer:

B. Through a written constitution that limits government power
