Explanation:

To determine who the "Whites" were during the Russian revolutionary era's civil war, we analyze each option:

• Option a: Paramilitary opponents of the Weimar Republic (Germany) are unrelated to the Russian "Whites."
• Option b: The "Whites" in the Russian Civil War were royalist and other anti - Bolshevik opponents, including those with royalist leanings. This matches the historical context of the Russian Civil War where the "Whites" fought against the Bolshevik "Reds."
• Option c: Noncombatants caring for the sick/wounded are not the "Whites" (a military - political faction).
• Option d: The "Whites" were not remnants of the Menshevik faction reforming against Bolsheviks; the Mensheviks were a different socialist faction, and the "Whites" were more diverse anti - Bolshevik forces including royalists.

Answer:

b) royalist opponents of the revolutionary communists in Russia
