ILL GIVE BRAINLIST!!!!!!!!!

Which of the following quotes best reflects the principle of social contract in the Declaration of Independence? (3 points)

"He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures."

"...a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."

"...it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security..."

"He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries."

It is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. So the correct option would be number 3.

Answer:

" ...It is their right, is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.."

Explanation:

A social contract is an agreement between the people and the government. In this contract, the citizens agree to give up some of their rights. In return the government will protect the civil liberties of citizens by creating rules for all people to abide by.

In the social contract, if the government does not protect the rights of citizens then citizens have the ability to get rid of this government in order to replace it with a government that will protect its right. This idea is reflected within the excerpt above.
