The correct answer is D: civic participation is important in order everyone gets to express their needs and fight for their rights. This helps elected politicians better understand how their work should be conducted.

Democracy means "people power". There are different forms of democracy; they can be more or less direct, for example. That means a democratic regime can have more or less instruments for the people to express their voice.  

Generally there are always elected individuals to represent large numbers of people. Because of this, it's important in a democracy that civic participation is possible so that people can directly make demands to their representatives and keep an eye on the public Power.

when studying cause and effect, historians usually group the causes into different categories. for example, cultural causes reflect how a society’s literature and art convey the way the society saw itself in relation to the rest of the world. another resource that historians use to understand society is pop culture, which tells them the trends and ideas that are preferred by the common people. when studying cause and effect, it’s important to remember multiple causation, or the idea that an effect could have several causes and vice versa.  

the correct option is “cultural causes” since art and literature are related to the culture of a place. culture is determined by literature, art, music.

the correct option is “pop culture” since it reflects the likes and ideas of common people whereas the rest of the options do not focus on common people.  

the correct option is “multiple causation” since it refers to the idea that events are caused by multiple reasons, not just a single one.
