    Option D. It took all land from Native American reservations and put it up for sale.

    Explanation:

    The second industrial revolution led way to a lot of mass production of consumer and manufacturing goods. This led to rapid urbanization and with more people wishing to settle near the factories.

    The huge amount of land and natural resources occupied by the Indians were resources for this industrial revolution, where the whites wanted to settle near the manufacturing factories.

    Hence the federal government passed the Dawes Act which made millions of Indians to lose their land which was later sold to the whites. The government partitioned their land into individual plots. Only those Native American Indians who could gain such a plot was provided American citizenship. In this way, huge number of poor Indians who could not gain a plot was stripped of their land which was later sold to the non-natives

    C. It moved all Native Americans to a single reservation and then allotted land to individual families.

    Explanation:

    During the 1800's the American government slowly but surely reduced the right so native Americans by first curbing the spaces they had to live among themselves, then increasingly making reservations.

    Instead of letting the natives live their way in their villages, they were torn down and the land put up for sale.

    People from different tribes, languages and culture were simply bundled together in small reservations with little more than a ghetto like house to live in.
