    correct:B. He thought that capitalism, by organizing production and allocation in anonymous markets, created atomised individuals instead of integrated communities.

    Explanation:

    According to Marx, prior to capitalism there was a social division of labor, as people got involved in various branches within a sector. Either craft or producting branches had detailed and further divisions of labor, meaning a single worker needed to focus in a individual task, which atomised as individual (denying its human and spiritual essence).

    The created division of labor then meant only the working aspect at the expense of all the others. Marx observes that social division of labour then subdivides society, subdiviyng human essence, almost compared to perpetuating a crime against the person integrity

    The latter is known as Karl Marx's theory of alienation describing Isolation of people from aspects of their community as species. This are dangerous consequences of living in a capitalist society and stratified social classes.

    Alienation just another word for atomisation or social alienation of people from aspects of the mentioned "human nature. " Marx saw that alienation is a systematic consequence of capitalism. Workers are alienated by the bourgeoisie, those owning the means of production.
