Answer:  D) to create railroad networks that spanned the entire country

Explanation: The government granted land to railroads to create railroad networks that spanned the entire country. Four out of the five transcontinental railroads that were built in the United States in the late 1800s and early 1900s were built, at least in part, using land granted by the United States government. These railroads were important because they made traveling easier and shipping good more affordable.
