c) the Tenth Amendment, which reserves to the people and the states those powers not granted to the federal government.

IS D CORRECT ANSWER?THANK YOU:)))))

Right.

Yes, D is the correct answer. The Supreme Court has reasoned that a right of privacy is provided by a reasonable interpretation of other constitutional protections of individual rights. This reasoning is based on several Supreme Court cases, notably the landmark case of Griswold v. Connecticut in 1965. In this case, the Supreme Court recognized a right of privacy within the penumbra (or shadow) of various constitutional rights, such as the First Amendment's right to freedom of speech and the Fourth Amendment's protection against unreasonable searches and seizures.

To arrive at the answer to this question, it is important to understand the different amendments and their interpretations by the Supreme Court. By examining the text and historical context of the Constitution, as well as the Court's past decisions, one can deduce that the right to privacy emanates from a reasonable interpretation of other constitutional protections of individual rights. It is in this way that the Court has developed and expanded the concept of the right to privacy over time.
