John Roebling, the designer of the Brooklyn Bridge, was a civil engineer who invented twisted wire-rope cable.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Jhon Roebling, born on 1806 was a German immigrant who migrated to the united states around 1830. When he was hired to develop a canal system for Pennsylvania, he could see the hemp ropes which they used to pull up the barges were not strong enough.

He then started to venture the ideas to make strong as well as flexible ropes by twisting and winding together several steel wires. He then patented his invention in 1842.

He was the creator of the first wire suspension bridge between 1844 & 1845. Jhon Roebling founded a company of manufacturing wire cables in Trenton, New jersey. He flourished and continued his journey of constructing various structures and died in 1869.

The Harlem Renaissance began to emerge in the midst of an intellectual and social upheaval that eventually emerged and spread throughout the 20th century African American community. Something that happened right after the North American Civil War that ended up generating a black middle class, something that favored the emergence of jobs and better education conditions for Afro descendants.

Jackie Mabley "Moms Mabley" adopted her theatrical name, Jackie Mabley, from that of an old friend. Later on she was known as "Moms" because she was truly a "Mom" for many other comedians from the 1950s and 1960s. At the age of 27, she declared herself a lesbian, and was one of the first artists on the comedy circuit to be qualified as triple-X
