what does the ninth amendment say?
the constitution contains a full list of all rights that citizens of the united states have.
the constitution identifies some rights, but people also have other rights beyond those.

Explanation:

The Ninth Amendment states that just because the Constitution lists specific rights, this does not mean people do not have other unlisted rights. The first option incorrectly claims the Constitution has a full list of all rights, which contradicts the amendment's purpose. The second option aligns with the amendment's meaning: it acknowledges the listed rights while affirming that people hold additional rights not enumerated.

Answer:

The Constitution identifies some rights, but people also have other rights beyond those.
