The correct answer is C.

The Selective Training ans Service Act of 1940 required all men between the ages of 21 to 45 to register for the draft. This was<em> the first peacetime draft </em>in U.S. history. The draft was done by lottery and if selected, the men had to served at least one year in armed forces.

At that time the United War was not at war, but many people believed that the country would be eventually drawn into it. With the fall of France to the Nazis in June 1940, Americans were growing uneasy about Great Britain's ability to defend Germany on its own. National polls showed a growing majority in favor of instituting a draft.

Answer:

D) A secondary source.

Explanation:

A secondary source is any source of getting information or without the author participating in the scenes described in the text. The author may or may not be taking or writing based on his research in writing the book which can be a result of interpreting, evaluating, and analyzation of the scene described. Secondary sources can be academic/ scholarly books, articles, and commentaries, etc.

Thus, the <u>correct answer is option D. </u>

enot [183]

Answer:

Water vapor is less dense than these heavy molecules; in humid air, water vapor takes up space that would normally be occupied by nitrogen and oxygen. Known as the "vapor buoyancy effect," this phenomenon renders humid air lighter than dry air of the same temperature, pressure and volume.
