Answer: B. was recognized by the Supreme Court in Griswold v. Connecticut, 1965.

The case Griswold v. Connecticut (1965) was a landmark case in which the Supreme Court ruled that the government cannot restrict a couple's access to contraception, as couples have a "right to marital privacy."

Moreover, the case showed that although the Constitution does not explicitly state a right to privacy, several parts of the Constitution imply it, such as the Fifth Amendment, the Fourteenth Amendment and the Ninth Amendment.
