Which right is not explicitly mentioned in the 1st Amendment?

  1. Freedom of speech

  2. Right to petition the government

  3. Right to privacy

  4. Freedom of religion

The correct answer is: Right to privacy

The right that is not explicitly mentioned in the First Amendment is the right to privacy. The First Amendment focuses on protecting specific freedoms such as speech, religion, press, assembly, and the right to petition the government. The right to privacy, while recognized as an essential concept in various legal cases and interpretations, is not directly delineated in any of the First Amendment provisions. Instead, the right to privacy has been inferred from various amendments in the Constitution, particularly from the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, and has been the subject of judicial interpretation over the years. Thus, while the concept of privacy is significant in modern legal discourse, it does not appear as a specified right within the text of the First Amendment itself.
