Answer:

a. Imperialists argued that stronger countries should naturally dominate weaker countries.

Step-by-step explanation:

Social Darwinism was the belief that certain people became powerful in society merely because they are naturally superior. Many imperialists believed that it was their duty to "purify" the inferior population.
