Question

1. which of the following best describes social darwinism?

scientific method for studying evolution
idea that stronger nations had the right to dominate weaker ones
philosophy supporting democracy worldwide

Explanation:

Social Darwinism applies Darwin's "survival of the fittest" to society/nations, arguing stronger nations should dominate weaker ones. The first option is about scientific evolution study (not Social Darwinism). The third option (democracy support) and fourth (cultural equality) contradict Social Darwinism's core idea of hierarchy based on strength.

Answer:

B. Idea that stronger nations had the right to dominate weaker ones
