Solution
The correct option is C Survival of the fittest
Nazi ideologues twisted the theories of Darwin and Spencer to cater to their racist rhetoric. They justified the ethnic cleansing or the pogroms they carried out against different ethnic groups in Germany. In the process, the Nazis appropriated the concept of 'survival of the fittest' and used it as justification to kill tens of thousands of physically and mentally disabled Germans.
