The USS Maine was sunk in the Harbour of Havana, Cuba, during a revolt of the cubans against Spain. Public opinion in the USA was that Spain was to blame. Starting as a diplomatic issue between Spain and USA, rapid escalation resulted in war between the two countries.
<u>Answer:</u>
American leaders called for the replacement of the Articles of Confederation because it made the central government too weak.
Option: (d)
<u>Explanation:
</u>
- The Articles of Confederation had to be withdrawn and replaced with a Constitution because they dispensed too much of power and authority to the states and left the President to serve as a nominal head.
- The leaderships of states being too strong and free to form their own laws started behaving like independent entities.
- This ultimately created a threat to the unity of the nation.
- Moreover, many state leaders proposed that the federal government should get to exercise command over the state governments in order to secure broad and large national interests.
World War II produced important changes in American life--some trivial, others profound. One striking change involved fashion. To conserve wool and cotton, dresses became shorter and vests and cuffs disappeared, as did double-breasted suits, pleats, and ruffles.
Even more significant was the tremendous increase in mobility. The war set families in motion, pulling them off of farms and out of small towns and packing them into large urban areas. Urbanization had virtually stopped during the Depression, but the war saw the number of city dwellers leap from 46 to 53 percent.
War industries sparked the urban growth. Detroit's population exploded as the automotive industry switched from manufacturing cars to war vehicles. Washington, D.C. became another boomtown, as tens of thousands of new workers staffed the swelling ranks of the bureaucracy. The most dramatic growth occurred in California. Of the 15 million civilians who moved across state lines during the war, over 2 million went to California to work in defense industries.

Explanation:
Answer:
Deciduous forest is your answer
Explanation:
I looked up the pictures and descriptions for each biome and Deciduous forests were the ones that matched up the description most.
- Alpine regions don't have trees growing in the area because of the high elevation, so that option is automatically out.
- Deserts usually can not support the life of trees and shrubs.
- The tundra is a biome with hindered tree growth and it also has short growing seasons.
