Answer:

The best option is letter b) an individual’s right to freedom in relation to others.

Explanation:

We are all technically free. Even God gave us free will so that we could make our own choices concerning our actions. Yet, there are laws and rules which, if not obeyed, bring consequences in relation to our choices. The reason for that is our freedom being limited. As Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes said, "The right to swing my fist ends where the other man’s nose begins." That means I am free to do whatever it is that I want - as long as I don't interfere with someone else's freedom. The moment my freedom begins to hurt and harm others, it should be curbed. That is what laws are for: to protect everyone's right to be free and safe. I have the right to walk on the streets without being attacked by anyone. If someone attacks me, I no longer feel free to walk calmly. That person should suffer the consequences so that my freedom is respected. His freedom to do whatever he wanted ended when he endangered my freedom to walk safely.

What are homophones?

Homophones are words that have different meanings and that are spelled differently, but that have the same pronunciation or sound. For example, read aloud the words "see" and "sea." They sound exactly the same, but are different words. They are homophones.

We should note that "fist" and "feast" are not really homophones. Their sounds are not completely identical. In case you have doubts when doing activities such as this one, look up the words in a dictionary and choose the one that goes with the context.

We can conclude we completed the sentences correctly with the proper homophones.
