C is the correct answer.

Prior to the 14th Amendment, the view of the Supreme Court, as articulated in Barron v. Baltimore, was that the Bill of Rights only applied to the Federal Government.

After the 14th Amendment, the rights articulated in the Bill of Rights began to be understood as applying to the States as well.
