Answer:

a. did not demand voting rights for women because participants were so divided on the issue

Step-by-step explanation:

The Seneca Falls Convention was held at Seneca Falls in New York on the 19th and 20th July of 1848. About three hundred women and forty men attended the meeting. They wrote and signed the Declaration of Sentiments, which tried to bring equality in women in the society.

As a result the Declaration of Sentiments was documented which highlighted the injustice shown to the women in the society including women's voting rights, women's property rights, inequality shown in education and employment and many others.

Out of all this inequalities, one of the resolution that was not passed in the Declaration of Sentiments was that of women's suffrage as it was believed by some that the topic is controversial and would affect their social equality in some other arenas.

Hence the answer is --

a. did not demand voting rights for women because participants were so divided on the issue
