Answer:

The answer is explained below

Explanation:

The Fourteenth amendment was ratified in 1868, it granted citizenship to all persons naturalised or born in the US, it also included the former slaves. It guaranteed equal protection of the laws to all citizens.  It was one of the three amendments that were passed during the reconstruction era to establish legal and civil right for black Americans  and abolish slavery. The other two amendments were the 13th and 15th amendments. The  13th, 14th and 15th amendments are together known as the Reconstruction Amendments.  

Due process means that the legal rights of the persons must be respected by the state, it balances the power of law of a land and protects the people from it.

A  due process clause is mentioned in both the fifth and fourteenth amendments of the US constitution.   It acts a safeguard for people from denial of property, liberty and life by the government.  

The fifth amendment says that the federal government cannot deprive anyone of their property life or liberty without following due process of law While the fourteenth amendment talks about the state government.

The fifth and fourteenth amendment are almost same but there is one difference between them  is that fourteen amendment also includes that states cannot deny the equal protection of laws to its citizens.
