A Correct answer
Explanation

The phrase 'Freedom involves some duties' means that freedom comes with certain responsibilities. The word 'some' is the appropriate quantifier here as it indicates that freedom entails an unspecified number of obligations rather than an excessive amount. Using 'much,' 'more,' or 'great' would grammatically incorrect or contextually inappropriate in this sentence structure.
