The excerpt below comes from a 1972 law that amended the Civil Rights Act of 1964: No person in the U. S. shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, or denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any educational program or activity receiving federal aid. Which statement explains why the women's rights movement sought passage of this law

It extended the protections of the Civil Rights Act to women.

Explanation:

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was a large step forward in the effort to abolished segregation in public places, bigotry, and marginalization triggered by racism, sexism, or religious intolerance. Title IX  of the education amendments of 1972 forbids educational institutions funded by the federal government from discrimination against students and other workers of the institution on the basis of their sex. It is regarded to be one of the magnificent legislative victories of the civil rights movement.

the fifth and fourteenth amendments to the united states constitution each contain a due process clause. due process deals with the administration of justice and thus the due process clause acts as a safeguard from arbitrary denial of life, liberty, or property by the government outside the sanction of law.
