Answer:
A. Selfishness and greed
Explanation:

Answer:
D. Most infants died before childhood.
Explanation:

But it was also customary to have large families in order to support the family so kids often were used as labor and died in unfortunate accidents or from exhaustion. Today, there are many many laws protecting children from such things and medicine has evolved so most people in wealthy countries could live up to 70 years old if they take care of themselves.
