Answer:

Option C, natural rights, is the right answer.

Explanation:

During the Enlightenment period, John Locke was a philosopher, who gave a political theory. In his theory, he did not support the elected government on the basis of inheritance. His views and theories in regard to the government influenced Thomas Jefferson while drafting the Declaration of Independence for the United States. John Locke was the one who supported the theory of natural rights (which means that the people are born with some natural rights). He focuses on the centrality of property in the liberty of humans as well as the theory of natural law.
