How might Union/Find data structures be applied to Kruskal's algorithm?

It is stated in the entry for Kruskal's algorithm, but you can use the union/find structure to test (via FIND) if the edge connects two different trees or whether it will form a cycle when added.

The same structure can be updated (via UNION) if the edge does not form a cycle and is added to the spanning tree.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
