Answer 1

In the book 'Resistance,' the people of Lodz were forced by the Germans to give up their homes, possessions, and freedom to stay alive. This encompassed all aspects of life imposed by the Nazi occupation.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Resistance, the people of Lodz were subjected to severe restrictions and oppression under German occupation during World War II. To stay alive, the Jews and Polish individuals in areas like Lodz were coerced into giving up (d) All of the above: their homes, possessions, and freedom. Jews were forced into overcrowded ghettos with inadequate food, leading to starvation and disease, and ultimately were sent to concentration camps. The ghettos, like the one in Lodz, represented the Nazis' brutal and dehumanizing treatment of Jews where survival necessitated the sacrifice of nearly everything they held dear.
