How did democratic transition in South Africa challenge old apartheid laws?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It rejected race-based legal inequality

Correct answer: A. Apartheid laws treated people differently according to race and built legal separation into everyday political and social life. Democratic transition challenged those laws by replacing racial privilege with equal citizenship, universal political participation and constitutional protection of rights. The new legal framework aimed to ensure that government could not use race as a reason to deny a person dignity, political voice or equal treatment. B is wrong because the transition moved away from separation. C is wrong because the new democracy extended rights rather than reserving them for white citizens. D is wrong because the transition broadened voting participation, especially for people previously excluded. Legal change was important because democratic promises must be supported by enforceable rules. Memory cue: apartheid classified people by race; constitutional democracy protects citizens equally under law.
