Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Supreme Court has ruled that a woman's right to seek an abortion falls under the right of privacy, established in the landmark case Roe v. Wade (1973). The Court recognized that the Constitution protects a woman's privacy in making medical decisions, including the decision to terminate a pregnancy. The due process and equal protection clauses are also important protections under the Constitution, but they are not the basis for the right to abortion as recognized by the Court. The zone of privacy is not an explicit guarantee in the Constitution. The right of states to enact police powers is limited by the Constitution and cannot infringe upon individual rights, including the right to abortion.
