Conscripted soldiers were soldiers that were actually trained - either by the army or other means - volunteer soldiers (like most in WW1) were given no training and were just sent into battle to make up numbers as they did not have the time or resources to train more troops.

The trenches allowed men to be protected while fighting in the war. Being out of sight from the opposing country significantly increased their chances of surviving. The trenches were also designed focusing on air shooting. This meant they created a design that would also protect them from a plane shooting at them. Without the trenches all of the men would have been killed, and they wouldn't have been given a chance to fight. so yes. the trenches were VERY significant in the war.
