Answer:

The best answer is "A"

The due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment

Step-by-step explanation:

The Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment has a similar provision in the Fifth Amendment, which only restricts the federal government. It states that no person shall be “deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.”

Due process refers to fair and transparent procedures to go about a thing.
