done

Explanation:

The abolitionist movement (aimed at ending slavery) and the women's rights movement both sought to expand the application of constitutional rights. Abolitionists wanted enslaved people (who were denied basic rights) to have the rights guaranteed by the Constitution. Women's rights advocates wanted women (who were also systematically denied full rights) to have those same constitutional - guaranteed rights.

• Option A: The issue was not about states' law - making rights in general. The focus was on the application of constitutional rights.
• Option C: They were not just "causing trouble" but were fighting for legitimate rights based on the principles of the Constitution.
• Option D: The question is about the US context, not the situation in England.

Answer:

B. They shared the belief that rights granted by the US Constitution should apply to all Americans.
