Jury duty is
A right, because it is discussed in the US constitution
A right, because only some citizens are required to do it.
A responsibility, because citizens citizens do it to help protect people's rights
A responsibility because judges cannot make decisions without juries.
I think it's d but not sure.
Oh sorry forgot to put a b c d. I think it's d though.
It's both c and d. Which does your text emphasize?
Note that some cases are decided by a judge alone.
It doesn't say anything. Sorry
Thank you for trying though. I thought it was either c or d to but d looked more correct. Thanks.
Don't you think jury duty is a responsibility we all have to make sure our fellow citizens are treated fairly?
The constitution guarantees the right to a trial by one's peers. Why is that? And if no one felt responsible to serve on a jury, that sort of negates the principle involved, doesn't it? If you were accused of something and wanted to prove your innocence, but nobody had a responsibility to serve on a jury, you would not have the right to be tried in front of your peers, would you?
I HAD THIS QUESTION LAST YEAR!!!
I CHOSE D AND IT WAS CORRECT GOOD LUCK ON YOU!

Jury duty is actually both a right and a responsibility. Let me explain why.
From the perspective of a right, jury duty is mentioned in the US Constitution. Specifically, the Sixth Amendment states that "In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed." Therefore, being able to participate in the jury system is considered a right granted by the Constitution.
On the other hand, jury duty is also a responsibility that citizens have. The justice system relies on the participation of citizens to serve on juries and help ensure a fair trial. By serving on a jury, citizens play a vital role in upholding justice and protecting people's rights. Without juries, judges alone would be responsible for making decisions, which may not always provide a fair and unbiased outcome.
So to answer your question, both options C and D are correct. Jury duty is a responsibility because citizens participate to protect people's rights, but it is also a right because it is mentioned in the US Constitution.
