What did the planes have in common? they were all domestic flights heading towards the West coast, which means that they would have a great amount of fuel on them: this would increase the explosion and fire after the crashes. This was a likely reason for those and not other planes being chosen.
Very true. Just look at The Far Left vs The Far Right in today's world.

The correct answer is letter D
European imperialism provided a high level of consumption for the global powers. At the same time, it caused misery on the African and Asian continents.
With independence on the American continent and the strategic American threat to European nations that dared to re-dominate territories in America, the world order was undergoing changes. European imperialism, which would explore Asia and Africa, would now determine world geopolitics.
The power of European magnates and politicians, as well as the standard of living of the continent's middle classes, were sustained by the colonial economy. There being no more colonial domains to explore, two options remained for those nations: to grow through diplomatic relations or to control other regions. The second option was chosen. And so, the European powers started to feed their industries and strengthen their economy by extracting wealth and preventing the development of regions in Africa and Asia.
The answer your looking for is they placed the sarcophagus over the reactor. It was a metal sarcophagus that was supposed to block radiation from leaking out of the reactor.
However, there was also other programs that occurred to secure the reactor/area to prevent further issues:
1. They sent liquidators to the area to lower radiation in the area (by unfortunately killing animals, putting contaminated items in certain spots, throwing graphite from the reactor on the roof back into it and more).
2. They evacuated the area (though arguably too late) and got most citizens out to prevent them from dying.
3. They sent minters to dig under the reactor and create a heat exchange, as to prevent the molten core from contaminating ground water.
4. They send a three-man team to release water valves in the reactor and prevent a steam explosion, which would’ve launched even more radiation into the environment.
Hope this helps!
