Solution
The correct option is C Genocide Adolf Hitler sanctioned concentration camps where he conducted the genocide. People were killed using gas chambers and other brutal methods. Gas chambers refer to the enclosed spaces in which captives are locked in with poisonous gas. These captives were forced to inhale the poisonous gas and die. Thousands of people were killed in this manner in several killing centres like Auschwitz.
