Answer 1

The correct answer is B) the Nazis wanted to get rid of those incapable of hard labor.

Pregnant women, weak individuals, and the sick were the first to be executed in the Nazi concentration camps because the Nazis wanted to get rid of those incapable of hard labor.

After Adolph Hitler became the leader of Germany, he ordered the persecution of the Jewish people. He considered Jews and inferior race that had to be eliminated. So during World War years, the Holocaust was the time of Jewish persecution that was sent to concentration camps to be killed in the chambers of gas. Pregnant women, weak individuals, and the sick were the first to be executed in the Nazi concentration camps because the Nazis wanted to get rid of those incapable of hard labor.

Answer 2

The correct answer is: "The Nazis wanted to get rid of those incapable of hard labor".

From the point of view of the nazis, people who were deported to camps were already considered dispensable, subhumans who contaminated the superior Aryan race: Jews, gypsys, communists, homosexuals, disabled, etc. But Germany was fighting a war and, although many of the deported people were executed straightaway, others were used for hard labor, specially to produce military equipment. Pregnant women, weak and sick individuals were considered useless for hard labor and for this reason they were the first to be executed (anyway they intended to execute the others or many died working too).
