Cevap

The correct statement is that rugby divided into two distinct codes, Union and League, in the late 19th century, with the Six Nations being a major Rugby Union tournament.
The correct statement accurately reflects that rugby experienced a schism in the late 19th century, resulting in two codes: Rugby Union and Rugby League. Furthermore, it correctly identifies the Six Nations as a prominent Rugby Union tournament.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the historical codification and variations of rugby.
Identify that rugby split into Union and League in the late 19th century, and the Six Nations is a major Union tournament.
This verifies the correct facts regarding the origins and major competitions of rugby.
2
Evaluate the claims about football and cricket.
Determine that football was codified in 19th-century England, not 18th-century Scotland, and that The Ashes is a cricket tournament. Recognize that cricket is much older than the 19th century and the Premier League is a football competition.
This process eliminates the incorrect options that mix up sport origins and major events.
3
Assess the specific rules and regional associations of rugby codes.
Recall that Rugby League has 13 players and originated in northern England, distinguishing it from Rugby Union's 15 players.
This eliminates the option that confuses the characteristics of Rugby League and Rugby Union.
