Answer

(II) is the reason for (I)

Explanation — Statement (I) is true because the threat of Socialism and Communism helped create conditions for the growth of Fascism in Italy.

Statement (II) is also true because many people wanted a strong leader who could end the lawlessness and insecurity caused by communist activities.

This demand for powerful leadership helped Mussolini and the Fascists gain support in Italy.

Therefore, Statement (II) is the reason for Statement (I).
