Answer 1

It says that the government can take the land but must pay a fair price to the owners- In this way fifth amendment affected this case.

Option: B

Explanation:

Government can wish to take any land for the establishment of eventful buildings. That land may be occupied by the citizens at that time. But for the sake of nation Government can compelled them to leave that land. Fifth amendment secured citizen's right and gave them the space of raising their voice for their rights.
