The correct answer is D) iron and wood.

The raw materials that had to be shipped to the construction sites in large quantities because they were essential for building the railroad tracks were iron and wood.

The Pacific Railroad Act of 1862 allowed the construction of a transcontinental railroad to connect the East coast of the United States with the West coast. The Union Pacific Railroad and the Central Pacific were the two companies that could receive the task to accomplish this important feat. They worked for seven years to connect the railroads from Omaha, Nebraska to Sacramento, California, until they finally met on May 10, 1869, in Promontory Utah.

Answer:

The correct answer is A. This statement refers to the beginning of the Cold War.

Explanation:

The Iron Curtain was a term used for ideological and often material borders that divided Europe in two parts from the end of World War II in 1945 to about 1991. The term became known after Winston Churchill used it in the "Iron Curtain Speech" on March 5, 1946.

The Iron Curtain divided Europe into "Eastern Europe", which was formed by the Soviet Union and other Warsaw Pact countries, and "Western Europe" which was formed by the European countries that were NATO members. The term "Central Europe" almost disappeared from the debate at the same time. It was one of the first divisions that appeared in the world as a result of the Cold War.
