The correct answer is c) Alaska was not allowed to claim land held by Native Americans.

Alaska Natives have traditionally used and occupied the land of Alaska for thousands of years. According to archaeologists, anthropologists, and their own oral histories, each Alaska Native group used only those areas traditionally controlled by them. Land was generally held by the group as a whole, with perhaps the exception of individual hunting or fishing camps.

These boundaries of control were not based on written documents or maps, but on actual traditions and practice. Native leaders, in 1966, formed a state-wide organization called the Alaska Federation of Natives (AFN). AFN pressed Congress towards settling the un-resolved issue of Alaska Native land ownership.  

The Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) was signed by President Nixon on December, 1971. The act settled the issue of what lands Alaska Natives owned by right of traditional use and occupancy. The phrase "traditional use and occupancy" means that the land was used for subsistence and occupied for a very long time. The Act was based on the right of Alaskan Natives to the land they had used and occupied for generations and generations. Congress would settle Native land rights on the basis of how much money and land Alaska Natives needed.

The principal parties that shaped the compromise of ANCSA were the federal and state governments, the oil companies, conservationists and the Alaska Federation of Natives.  

The date the Act actually passed is crucial to many portions of ANCSA. The issue of "New Natives," the protections of Native corporation shares and other issues are based on this date.

Ostrovityanka [42]
The correct option is this: TROOPS WERE BASICALLY TRAPPED IN THEIR TRENCHES, PREVENTING PROGRESS TOWARD SEIZING ENEMY TERRITORY.
A trench refers to a long and deep ditch, big enough to accommodate humans.  Trenches were used by soldiers during the World War 1. Soldiers faced a lot of difficulties living in these trenches, and it become a disadvantage to German and the other allied power, because the trenches hindered their progress towards seizing their enemies' territories.<span />

Why where the russians ready to revolt in 1917?
algol13
There were many reasons. The country was in extreme poverty, there was starvation everywhere and people were dying in misery. They wanted to change the imperialistic rule and impose their own bolshevik rule. People also wanted to end their participation in the war which is one of the first things that happened after the revolution. The communists left the war before the war ended.
