Answer:

D. Extended kinship networks were strong and important  

Explanation:

Slave family ties and marriages were not recognised in American law and the slave owner could sell the slave children, wives, husband and brothers without having any regard to their relationship. The larger plantations had numerous slaves and shifted slaves it split the families.

The sale of slaves used to destroy almost 10 to 20 percent of the slave marriages. Due to death of parents or the sale, more than a third of all slave children's grew up in such households where one or both parents were absent. The slaves could only visit their wives on their owners discretion.  

Despite the frequent breakup of the families the slaves had durable and strong family and kinship ties within the custom of slavery.  

Most of the slaves married a single women and lives with them until their death. To have a sense of family identity slaves named their children's after kin, deceased relatives, grandparents and parents. They also used to pass down names of their ancestor's owner

Answer:

Trench warfare in World War I was employed primarily on the Western Front, an area of northern France and Belgium that saw combat between German troops and Allied forces from France, Great Britain and, later, the United States. Although trenches were hardly new to combat: Prior to the advent of firearms and artillery, they were used as defenses against attack, such as moats surrounding castles. But they became a fundamental part of strategy with the influx of modern weapons of war.

Long, narrow trenches dug into the ground at the front, usually by the infantry soldiers who would occupy them for weeks at a time, were designed to protect World War I troops from machine-gun fire and artillery attack from the air. As the “Great War” also saw the wide use of chemical warfare and poison gas, the trenches were thought to offer some degree of protection against exposure. (While significant exposure to militarized chemicals such as mustard gas would result in almost certain death, many of the gases used in World War I were still relatively weak.)
