□ purposefully injuring members of a group
□ forcing a group to support government policies
□ confining a group in an unhealthy environment
□ removing children to live with other groups
□ forcing a group to accept a different set of religious beliefs

Explanation:

Based on the legal definition of genocide (from the UN Genocide Convention), genocide includes acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group.

1. Purposefully injuring group members is a direct violent act targeting the group's physical integrity, fitting the definition.
2. Confining a group in an unhealthy environment is a form of inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about the group's physical destruction.
3. Removing children to live with other groups is an act intended to destroy the group's identity, which is classified as genocide.

The other actions do not meet the specific criteria of genocide as defined, as they focus on political compliance or religious coercion without the intent to destroy the group itself.

Answer:

• purposefully injuring members of a group
• confining a group in an unhealthy environment
• removing children to live with other groups
