Which amendment granted women the right to vote?

• A. 21st Amendment
• B. 18th Amendment
• C. 19th Amendment
• D. Prohibition

Answer: (C)

The question tests the expansion of voting rights to women through a constitutional change. The right to vote for women in the United States was guaranteed nationwide by an amendment ratified in 1920, which prohibits denying or abridging the right to vote on account of sex. This was the culmination of decades of the suffrage movement, building on earlier state-level reforms and activism by suffragists, and it meant that women could vote in all states, not just some.

As for the other items, one amendment back in the early 1900s established Prohibition, banning alcohol. A later amendment repealed Prohibition, undoing that ban. The name “Prohibition” itself refers to that policy, not to voting rights.
