<span>1. Which statement identifies a major change in the United States between the Civil War and the 1920s?

B. Suburbs sprang up as a result of the immigrant population wanting to make a better life for their families.
C. People returned to their farms where crops thrived as a result of new equipment and fertilizers.

C and D are easily eliminated; farmer life did not grow. It's been steadily shrinking since the 1700s.

Answer:

The correct answer is women’s involvement in the revival provided support for the women’s rights movement.
Women, were the majority of converts during the Awakening, and played a crucial role in their development. It is not clear why women converted in greater numbers than men. The sense of religiosity in women, reaction to economic insecurity, or an affirmation of self in the face of the patriarchal rule. Husbands, especially in the South, sometimes failed to convert their wives, forcing women to choose between submission to God or their spouses. Church membership and religious activity gave women peers support and a place for meaningful activity outside the home, providing many women with a common identity and shared experiences.
