The correct answer (sample response) is:

Safer and more versatile railroads made it easier to travel and settle the West. Refrigerator cars helped the meatpacking industry to grow. Longer rail lines made it easier to send crops to markets. New railroads brought minerals and raw materials to iron and steel mills.

These are the effects of the growth of agriculture in the Midwest.

Railroads helped the US grow by making settlement in the West possible after the Civil War by connecting farmers (miners, ranchers, loggers, and others) to markets. there people and companies could both ship their produce to markets as well as ship in the machinery and supplies they needed. It was the only way to move large amounts of things quickly.

In 1957, Russia successfully launched a satellite named Sputnik into orbit. Explain the impact of this achievement on the United
Andrew [12]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can comment on the following.

In 1957, Russia successfully launched a satellite named Sputnik into orbit. The impact of this achievement on the United States was the following.

American people reacted to Sputnik 1 with fear and concern. United States citizens were concerned that they were inferior to the Soviets in terms of science, technology, and missiles.

Four years later, the Soviet Union decided to send astronaut Yuri Gagarin. He was the first human into space. His capsule was named "Vostok," which completed its orbit on April 12, 1961.

The response to the launching of Sputnik by the Soviet Union in 1957 and the sending of Gagarin was that the US federal government began spending billions of dollars to improve American science education.

The space program had to be sped up because, in those years of the Cold War, it was inadmissible for the United States to behind the Soviet Union in the space race. The United States federal government also invested a lot in education and space research.

Black people, African Americans were hired by NASA to help develop the science and mathematics calculations to develop better rockets that could equal the Soviet feat.
