Answer
- D The basic rights of people living in the United States
Explanation
The Bill of Rights – the first ten amendments of 1791 – protects the basic rights of Americans and of all people living in the United States, such as freedom of speech, religion and assembly. It thereby limits the power of government. The rights of the states are mainly the subject of the 10th Amendment.
