The correct answer is D, as they decreased hourly wages and salaries in the state.

The Liberty Ships were a series of artillery cargo ships built in the United States during World War II to satisfy the Lend-Lease Act with Britain, replacing the merchant fleet sunk by German submarines and to maintain supply convoys with the Soviet Union. The Liberty were called the victory ships.

Some 200 ships were built in the State of Georgia, where workers were hired who roughly built a ship every 9 days. In order to obtain this performance, the working hours were extended and more personnel were hired, reducing salaries so as not to exceed the expected expenses, all under the excuse of being an "effort for war".

Digestion is the process of breaking down food into their most basic forms. In humans digestion starts in mouth (30% starch is broken into maltase). in stomach proteins are broken into peptones and in infants milk proteins are also digested in stomach. and the final digestion takes place in small intestine with the help of different enzymes (trypsin, pancreatic enzymes etc) released from different glands (intestinal glands, pancreatic glands) and finally after the action of all enzymes food is converted into most basic forms of them (frctose = glucose + galactose, proteins to dipeptides or amino acids etc).
