Answer:

The characteristic that was true of native-born Protestants is that they comprised a large part of the membership of the Ku Klux Klan.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ideology of native-born Protestants is quite similar to the one of the Ku Klux Klan, and that is one of the reasons why many members were native-born Protestants since they truly believed that their actions of intimidation, violence and towards people from other ethnics of religious beliefs were the only way to save the land where they were living.

The correct answer is D) they comprised a large part of the membership of the Ku Klux Klan.

The characteristic that was true about the native-born Protestants was that they comprised a large part of the membership of the Ku Klux Klan.

The Ku Klux Klan was founded in 1886 and was an organization formed by white men that opposed the ideas of Reconstruction of Republican members and the equilaty in economy and politics between whites and African Americans. The Klan mostly operated in the Southern states of the U.S. and one characteristic of its members was that they were native-born Protestants that comprised a large part of the membership of the Ku Klux Klan.
