Answer 15

I think you were correct in thinking that for #1 it's A. Segregation means:
seg·re·ga·tion
ˌseɡrəˈɡāSH(ə)n/
noun
noun: segregation

the action or state of setting someone or something apart from other people or things or being set apart.
"the segregation of pupils with learning difficulties"
the enforced separation of different racial groups in a country, community, or establishment.
"an official policy of racial segregation"
Genetics
the separation of pairs of alleles at meiosis and their independent transmission via separate gametes.
So, if they were trying to stop setting something apart from another, then it would be that.

Answer 16

Okay!
