Answer:

The dramatic rise in defense spending in the first half of the 1950s could be best explained by the United States' involvement in the Cold War.

Explanation:

The Cold War was a dispute between the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact countries against the United States and NATO. It began after World War II and lasted from about 1945 until about 1990. It came to an end as a result of the collapse of the Soviet Union. It was a "cold war" because there was no open war ("hot" war) between those countries.  

The Korean War, the Vietnam War and the Soviet Union's military intervention in Afghanistan were among the main scenarios of the Cold War. However, the main feature of the Cold War was not open combat, but competition for power and influence in the world. The two sides were spying on each other regularly.  

A major concern during this period was the rise of nuclear weapons and the danger of a Third World War that would destroy the entire planet. One of the focal points of Cold War tension was a divided Germany, especially Berlin which was a divided city on the border between the German Democratic Republic ("East Germany") and the Federal Republic of Germany ("West Germany"). The Berlin Wall divided Berlin into two parts - West Berlin and East Berlin - becoming one of the symbols of the Cold War.

What is one of the key indicators of primates' adaptability?
boyakko [2]
It's interesting that you posted your question in the history section of Brainly.  It qualifies in the category of "Big History," as some have termed it.  That term was coined by the scholar David Christian, whom I met once at a conference where he was a presenter.  His idea was that we look at "history" not just as what has happened in the recorded records of human beings, but look back at all that has occurred in the history of the universe.  So the "Big History" concept incorporates the story of evolution into its account of things.

As far as your specific question, a key indicator of primates' adaptability is that you see primates living in all sorts of different regions on the planet.  Snow monkeys live in cold regions of Japan where snow covers the ground many months of the year.  Howler monkeys live in the tropical rainforests of Brazil.  And there are other primates of all sorts in all sorts of climates and conditions.  That shows the adaptability of primates to survive and thrive in various circumstances.
