The correct answer is the fourth one: They resulted in higher casualty rates than in the past.

The WWI left between 9 and 10 million dead and 20 million hurt soldiers. Additionally, it is estimated that civilian victims rise to 7 million. It was the first time in history that a war left such a massive number of victims and it was due to the use of new military technology.
