Answer:

C) Holding hearings about communist ties to the enterntainment industry.

Explanation:

The House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) was a federal agency tasked with trying to reveal any Soviet/communist influence within the entertainment industry. More specifically, this agency focused on the film industry. The federal government was worried about the movie industry and it's ties to the Soviet Union because of the influence that movies had on millions of American citizens on a weekly basis.

This is why the HUAC would call in important people like Walt Disney and Ronald Reagan in order to question them about their potential ties to the Soviet Union.

4) includes the elastic clause

However, none of the choices given is considered to be the answer. The US constitution is said to be "flexible" for the main reason that it is always subjected to amendments, usually taking place in the past.
