In order to determine which of the options, A or B, imposes an undue burden on a woman's right to choose an abortion, we need to refer to the Supreme Court case Planned Parenthood of Pennsylvania v. Casey.
Planned Parenthood of Pennsylvania v. Casey was a landmark Supreme Court case in 1992 that addressed restrictions on a woman's right to have an abortion. In this case, the Supreme Court considered whether certain provisions of a Pennsylvania law regarding abortion violated a woman's constitutional right to choose to have an abortion.
The answer to your question can be found by examining the Supreme Court's decision in Planned Parenthood of Pennsylvania v. Casey. In that case, the Court held that a state may regulate abortion as long as it does not impose an "undue burden" on a woman's right to choose.
Regarding option A: Spousal consent, the Court in the Casey decision found that spousal consent would impose an undue burden on the woman's right to choose. The Court ruled that a woman has the ultimate decision-making authority over her own body and that requiring spousal consent would be an unconstitutional intrusion into her decision.
Regarding option B: Informed consent, the Court in the Casey decision found that requiring informed consent does not impose an undue burden on a woman's right to choose. The Court stated that it is reasonable for the state to require that women seeking an abortion receive certain information about the procedure and its risks, as long as this requirement is not unduly burdensome or intended to deter women from making the decision to terminate a pregnancy.
So, in the case of Planned Parenthood of Pennsylvania v. Casey, the answer would be A: Spousal consent is the governmental condition that imposes an undue burden on a woman's right to choose an abortion, while B: Informed consent does not.
It's important to note that this specific ruling applies to the Pennsylvania law in question, and the legal landscape surrounding abortion rights can vary by jurisdiction.
