Protective tariffs  were a key element of the American system. These are tariffs that are enacted aiming to protect a domestic industry. Protective tariffs seek to make imported goods cost more than equivalent goods produced in the country, leading to the rise of sales of domestically produced goods; supporting local industry. Tariffs are also imposed in an attempt to increase government revenue, or to reduce an undesirable activity.

The correct answer is C) Protective tariffs.

A tariff is a tax on an imported good. This was an integral part of Henry Clay's American System. The American System was focused on developing America into an industrialized nation much like Great Britain. Henry Clay had three key elements of this plan to help America become more industrialized including:

1) A tariff - This would increase prices of foreign goods and protect American businesses.

2) Funds for building infrastructure (i.e. canals, railroads, etc.)

3) A national bank- This would help to foster commerce.

Why were so many Japanese soldiers killed in battle of owl him a instead of being taken prisoner
MAVERICK [17]
Many Japanese soldiers were killed in battle of Iwo Jima because:

1) Their shinobi code of honor: They had a some 'rules' they had to follow. One of which was that they could not be captured. If they were wounded, they would have to suicide, and it was particularly better to take their own life when the enemies were around.
2) Because of this, they did not have respect for any Allied soldiers that surrendered. This made the Allies wary of the Japanese, and fought the Japanese with a different "rule" then their German counterparts. In fact, some soldiers adopted the motto "shoot before you ask questions", and it was used widely in battles. This motto meant that they would accept no prisoners.
3) Iwo Jima was considered to be part of the Japanese homeland that was born out of the ocean when the Japanese god created the world. To them, this land was sacred, and they said & thought that these lands would never be conquered. This was part of the reason why many soldiers fought to the death, because they believed that their Islands would never be taken over by foreigners. 

fun fact: Kamikaze, meant divine wind, and it was widely used by the Japanese during the war, even on Iwo Jima. In the history before WW2, a group of Korean ships set sailed to attack Japan (back in the Samurai ages). However, they met strong winds and storms, and the attack force was destroyed. The Japanese named this kind of wind "<em>kamikaze</em>".
