Explanation

Hitler excluded Jews in three stages. These were Exclusion, Ghettoisation, and Annihilation.

 In the first stage, he used the policy of  Exclusion from 1933-39. Under this, it was declared that Jews had no right to live among Germans as Citizens. Under this process, The Nuremberg Law of citizenship of September 1935 was declared. As per this law Jews had no right to get the protection of the German empire. 
At the second stage, the process of Ghettoisation was used which means Jew had no right to live among Germans. By this method, Jew had to wear a  yellow star of David on their breast. Their houses, passports and legal documents were stamped with an identity mark.

At the third stage, they used the method of Annihilation which means Jews had no right to live. This time Jews were brought to death factories by goods trains. In Poland and elsewhere in the east they were charred in gas chambers. The mass killing took place within minutes with scientific precision.

D Correct answer
Explanation

Germany had fought the war largely on loans and had to pay war reparations in gold. This depleted gold reserves at a time resources were scarce. In 1923 Germany refused to pay and the French occupied its leading industrial area, Ruhr, to claim their coal. Germany retaliated with passive resistance and printed paper currency recklessly. With too much currency in circulation, the value of the German mark fell. As the value of Mark collapsed, prices of goods soared.
