C. and they are otherwise disruptive to families and cmmunities

答案是A， 不知道A中这个that到底指什么

Answer 1

people 作为“民族”是可数的，这里的that 指的是conflicts, C 选项用and 连接就是两个并列句，they所指代的就是peoples与题干意思不服，只有冲突才是对家庭，社区有干扰性的

Answer 2

that 是指 conflicts就是那些conflicts might otherwise be disruptive to families and communities
peoples这里代表种群/人口
