Answer:

The correct answer is C. The right to trial by jury has its roots in the Magna Carta and is contained in the 6th and 7th Amendments in the US Constitution.

Step-by-step explanation:

-The Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution codifies rights related to criminal cases in federal courts. The Supreme Court has ruled that these rights are so fundamental and important that the Fourteenth Amendment protects them in state courts by the due process clause.

-The Seventh Amendment of the United States is a part of the Bill of Rights and codifies the right to a jury trial in certain civil cases. The Supreme Court has not extended this amendment to the states by the Fourteenth Amendment as other parts of the Bill of Rights.
