Explanation

Fundamental Rights are superior to ordinary law (II) and are not absolute (IV). However, the question asks which factors do NOT explain why they are 'fundamental'. That they are available to both citizens and aliens (I) and that they are not absolute (IV) are not defining characteristics of why they are termed 'fundamental' - these are incidental features.
