which of the following statements describes a central issue the majority opinion decided in its roe v wade holding?

A. The majority concluded the right to privacy protects a woman's right to have an abortion during all three trimesters of her pregnancy.

B. the majority concluded that in the first trimester the constitutional rights of the mothers take precedent over the fetus/embryo/unborn, but that changes later in the women's pregnancy.

C. The Majority concluded that states never have an interest in restricting abortions in any of the three trimesters.

"In Roe v. Wade the Court said that a fetus is not a person but 'potential life,' and thus does not have constitutional rights of its own. The Court also set up a framework in which the woman's right to abortion and the state's right to protect potential life shift: during the first trimester of pregnancy, a woman's privacy right is strongest and the state may not regulate abortion for any reason; during the second trimester, the state may regulate abortion only to protect the health of the woman; during the third trimester, the state may regulate or prohibit abortion to promote its interest in the potential life of the fetus, except where abortion is necessary to preserve the woman's life or health."
