<span>C. Baby Boomers.

The period from 1946 to 1964 is known as the "baby boom" period in the United States.  More babies were born in America than ever before in 1946, and the high birth rates continued for a number of years.  Birth rates in the late 1940s and 1950s were much higher than they had been before, especially during the very low years of the Great Depression and World War II.

The birth rate in the US in 1935, in the midst of the Depression, was 18.7 births per 1,000 members of the population. At the peak of the Baby Boom in the 1950s, the birth rate reached over 25 births per 1,000 members of the population. In the present decade (the 2010s), the birth rate has dropped to around 12 births per 1,000 members of the population. </span>

Answer:

Yes, answer below!

Explanation:

Yes, he had done several actions against the constitution and overall led to the capital being attacked. He was a major leader and role model, some people would believe whatever he said; and sometimes he said some terrible things. Another topic is how he built part of a wall wasting our governments money just to keep people out when we should be making the regulations larger so we are able to let immigrants come in regulated amounts safely.

If you want to add more or not use it is just fine! It is my personal opinion, but it seems fair.

What two factors led to a larger workforce available to new industries?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:Several factors led to the rise of U.S. industrialization in the late 1800’s. New technologies like steam engines, railroads, and telegraphs made communication and transportation easier. The ability to source and transport materials across the country with ease turned many local businesses into national companies. Workplace innovations, such as the assembly-line method of production, allowed these companies to produce goods on a mass scale.

First, we should be clear about the nature of the industrial boom that occurred in the wake of the Civil War. It was the rise of heavy industry and the production of capital goods that characterized the early phases of industrial growth during this period, and by far the biggest factor contributing to growth was the expansion of the railroads.

Railroads expanded exponentially after the Civil War, and their rapid spread facilitated and spurred industrial growth in several ways. They led to a demand for coal, timber, and especially steel, the most important commodity in this new industrial age. They connected markets, enabling businesses like the meatpacking industry to rapidly increase distribution and production. Moreover, their corporate structures formed a paradigm and a model for other industries.

In addition to this new industry, which spawned many others, industrialization was fueled by the massive influx of immigrants from Europe and elsewhere that provided a large industrial labor force. Another factor was the rapid proliferation of new technologies, a cause and an effect of industrial development. Electric light, assembly lines, the Bessemer steel process, and the telephone were just a few of the myriad innovations that helped spur industrial growth.

A final, often-overlooked factor contributing to industrialization was the role played by the federal government. In the wake of the Civil War, the government spurred the growth of railroads by setting aside massive grants of land, providing subsidies, and other measures. The government also established high tariffs and created a generally pro-business economic climate that facilitated industrial growth.
