b) Rome adopted many Greek cultural elements, which spread during its conquest.
Explanation:
It is called the Hellenistic period or Hellenism or Alexandrian period (by Alexander the Great) to a historical stage of antiquity whose chronological limits are marked by two important political events: the death of Alexander the Great (323 BC) and the death of the last Hellenistic sovereign, Cleopatra VII of Egypt, and her lover Marco Antonio, after their defeat in the battle of Actium (31 BC). This last event marked the rise of the Roman Empire in the Mediterranean Sea. The Hellenistic culture was characterized by the spread of the culture, spirit, values, science, and philosophy of ancient Greece throughout the Mediterranean Sea and the regions that were conquered by Alexander the Great. The Romans were among these cultures that were deeply influenced by Hellenistic culture, and with their eventual expansion, Greek cultural elements also spread throughout Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East.

Answer: B) The Organic Theory
Details:
The Organic Theory of geography -- or maybe more accurately, of geopolitics -- was proposed by German geographer Friedrich Ratzel in 1897. He suggested that nations function similarly to living organisms. The controversial part of his theory was that the way a living organism takes in nourishment to grow and thrive, strong nations naturally will nourish and expand themselves, taking in weaker nations or cultures around them. Ratzel coined the term "Lebensraum" (German for "living space"), which originally, in his view, meant the space for a strong nationalist culture to grow. His writings came only a few decades after the German Empire had been reborn as the "Second Reich" (second kingdom), a renewal of the older "Holy Roman Empire" of German states as they were linked together in the medieval era. Ratzel's ideas about "Lebensraum" later were picked up by Hitler and the Nazis as a justification for expanding German territory and taking over neighboring countries. Germany's expansion under the Nazis as the "Third Reich" led to World War II in Europe.
