Which statement from the passage best supports the claim that citizens have a right to rebel against the government if it does n

ot serve their needs?
A) That all men are by nature equally free and independent, and have certain inherent rights, of which, when they enter into a state of society, they cannot, by any compact, deprive or divest their posterity; namely, the enjoyment of life and liberty, with the means of acquiring and possessing property, and pursuing and obtaining happiness and safety.

B) That government is, or ought to be, instituted for the common benefit, protection, and security of the people, nation or community; of all the various modes and forms of government that is best, which is capable of producing the greatest degree of happiness and safety and is most effectually secured against the danger of maladministration; and that, whenever any government shall be found inadequate or contrary to these purposes, a majority of the community hath an indubitable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to reform, alter or abolish it, in such manner as shall be judged most conducive to the public weal.

C) That elections of members to serve as representatives of the people in assembly ought to be free; and that all men, having sufficient evidence of permanent common interest with, and attachment to, the community have the right of suffrage and cannot be taxed or deprived of their property for public uses without their own consent or that of their representatives so elected, nor bound by any law to which they have not, in like manner, assented, for the public good.

D) That in all capital or criminal prosecutions a man hath a right to demand the cause and nature of his accusation to be confronted with the accusers and witnesses, to call for evidence in his favor, and to a speedy trial by an impartial jury of his vicinage,3 without whose unanimous consent he cannot be found guilty, nor can he be compelled to give evidence against himself; that no man be deprived of his liberty except by the law of the land or the judgement of his peers.

Answer: B. That government is, or ought to be, instituted for the common benefit, protection, and security of the people, nation or community; of all the various modes and forms of government that is best, which is capable of producing the greatest degree of happiness and safety and is most effectually secured against the danger of maladministration; and that, whenever any government shall be found inadequate or contrary to these purposes, a majority of the community hath an indubitable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to reform, alter or abolish it, in such manner as shall be judged most conducive to the public weal.

Explanation:

The statement from the passage that best supports the claim that citizens have a right to rebel against the government if it does not serve their needs is option B.

What is not a way to create tension in a plot?
BartSMP [9]

Resolution

The resolution of the story is the end. All of the conflicts are solved and subplots are wrapped up. Tension usually builds as the conflict begins and becomes more complicated. The author does this through the sequence of events, language, conflict, sentence structure, tone, and mood. The resolution is not an area of tension in a story. If there is, usually it's so that there can be a sequel.

Multiple new sources have printed stories about secret government programs. Why do some people see the papers’ actions as patrio
Ilya [14]

Answer: People may view these actions as patriotic because the papers’ are putting things that the government have been dishonest about into question. This may also be viewed as patriotic, becuse it is putting these programs out into the open, so that the public is aware of the things that the government may have been trying to hide. Others may veiw these actions as wrong because they may think that the govenment has a right to hide certain things. Some may think that the publishers should be tried under the Espionage Act because they may veiw the story as being disloyal to the government, as well as invading the governments privacy.
