    The inference made from the statement "He has made her, if married, in the eye of the law, civilly dead." is A: Man-made laws have deprived married women of their proper rights.

    Explanation:

    "Cilvily dead" is a figurative language used here in the given sentence. It doesn't mean that woman is dead.

    The sentence means that once the woman gets married, all her property becomes the property of her husband. Even whatever she earns, her husband has control over it. It seems as if the man-made laws or the laws made by the government have ignored the existence of the woman, i. e. she is dead civily. That's why whatever she has earned, her husband owns it automatically.
