c.
Upon Lee’s surrender, the entire Confederacy surrendered, putting an immediate end to the war.
d.
One of the biggest problems for Confederate troops was the lack of supplies such as food, clothes, and ammunition.

The correct answer is B. It is false that most Southerners were demoralized and understood they were losing the war by 1864.

Explanation:

1864 was a key year in the Civil War. That same year, in November, Lincoln beat George McClellan in the presidential election. Until then, the entire south believed that war would be defined in their favor with a democratic victory, which in turn would be forced if the Union suffered significant defeats on the battlefield.

For this reason, throughout 1864 the Confederation carried out different military operations designed for this purpose. Thus, its military commanders dedicated themselves to reinforcing their defenses in Virginia, Texas and the Deep South, hoping that the Union would weaken in order to carry out counterattack operations.

Despite winning in the Red River Campaign and fighting in the Deep South, the Confederacy was unable to keep Virginia. Thus, with the siege of Petersburg, the Union guaranteed an almost insured fall from Richmond (which would indeed occur in April 1865).
