The most accurate response is:
A social contract protects people’s natural rights by having citizens give up some individual freedoms.
This idea suggests that individuals consent to form a society and establish a government that creates and enforces laws, in exchange for the protection of their natural rights, such as life, liberty, and property. In this context, while citizens may give up some freedoms, they do so to ensure the protection and enforcement of their fundamental rights.
