A
Industrialization resulted in the creation of new weaponry.
B
Casualties were lower than in previous wars.
C
A stalemate prevented either side from making progress.
D
Nations agreed to abstain from the use of poison gas.
E
Germany used unrestricted submarine warfare to attack Allied ships.

Explanation

Industrialization brought weapons such as machine guns, tanks, and heavier artillery to the battlefield, so A is correct. Trench warfare created a long stalemate in which neither side made much progress, and Germany used unrestricted submarine warfare against Allied ships, making C and E correct. Casualties were extremely high, not lower than in previous wars, and poison gas was used rather than avoided by agreement.
