The correct option is:

B) Many workers were killed or sickened by malaria and yellow fever carried by mosquitoes.

When the United States gained control of the Panama Canal project (1904) the Isthmus of Panama was known for its tropical diseases. More than 22,000 deaths had occurred during the French effort to build a canal, especially due to yellow fever and malaria. It was later established that the poor living conditions of the workers included pools of standing water where mosquitoes were breeding and spreading disease.

kipiarov [429]
Yes because back then, India was a colony of England and basically owned by a company called the East India company with military enforcement. The people had no representation and also were forced to pay taxes such as the salt tax that ghandi famously went against during the salt March.
Likewise, the united states back then was also a colony of India and had no representation as well as had to pay taxes from laws such as the stamp act. Their values in fighting for independence and free reign were very similar. So yes.
