Solution

The question is asking you to select all the statements that apply to the ancient Hawaiians' and other Polynesians' belief in an impersonal force called mana. Here are the statements:

  1. Mana marked some people, especially the ruler, off from others and made them sacred.
  2. Because the king’s sister had almost as much mana as her brother, she was his most appropriate wife.
  3. Beliefs in mana promoted exogamy.
  4. Such royal marriages promoted struggles over succession.

To answer this question, you would need to have knowledge or do research on the ancient Hawaiian and Polynesian belief in mana.

For example, if you know or find information that confirms that mana did mark some people, especially the ruler, as sacred, then statement 1 would be correct.

Similarly, if you know or find information that confirms that the king's sister was considered his most appropriate wife because she had almost as much mana as him, then statement 2 would be correct.

If you know or find information that confirms that beliefs in mana promoted exogamy (marriage outside the community), then statement 3 would be correct.

Finally, if you know or find information that confirms that such royal marriages promoted struggles over succession, then statement 4 would be correct.

Without specific knowledge or research on this topic, it's not possible to definitively answer this question.
