The ruling made abortion legal in all 50 states but gave them regulatory powers over when abortions could be performed during a pregnancy. Currently, all states must allow abortions early in pregnancies but may ban them in later trimesters.
    A) Abortion is as imperative as Pregnancy.
    B) Abortion is vital if only Supreme Court decides so.
    C) Termination of later Pregnancies can result into health issues
    D) Early abortion, though immoral, must brought into practice in early stages only.
    E) None of these.

       Option D
    Explanation:
    The last statement says “currently, states must allow early abortion, therefore, it must be brought into practice. The second statement says, it was banned in 1973, so there must be some reason of banning it, hence  “immoral”.
  2. LGBT adoption is the adoption of children by lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) persons. This may be in the form of a joint adoption by a same-sex couple, adoption by one partner of a same-sex couple of the other’s biological child and adoption by a single LGBT person. Joint adoption by same-sex couples is legal in 25 countries. Opponents of LGBT adoption question whether same-sex couples have the ability to be adequate parents while other opponents question whether natural law implies that children of adoption possess a natural right to be raised by heterosexual parents. Since constitutions and statutes usually fail to address the adoption rights of LGBT persons, judicial decisions often determine whether they can serve as parents either individually or as couples.
    A) LGBT persons are not liable and friendly to adopt and raise children.
    B) Same-sex couples can adopt and raise a child only if judiciary permits it to do so.
    C) Law often fail to mark LGBT as an adequate parent to up-bring a child.
    D) There is no such constitution to decide LGBT adoption, LGBT can serve as parent after the interference of judicial system.
