Answer:

The correct answer is D. The Erie Canal provided a source of transportation for goods and people.

Explanation:

The Erie Canal was inaugurated on October 26, 1825 and connects Albany along the Hudson River with Buffalo, located on the Niagara River in New York State.

This connection was first proposed in 1699 but its construction began in 1817. About 584 km long, it has a total of 36 locks and a total height difference of 172 meters.

The canal allowed the boats access to the large inland lakes from New York City, thus becoming an important trade route, allowing the Big Apple to overtake the city of Philadelphia as a commercial port. It was the first transportation system between the eastern coast and the western interior of the United States that did not require portage.

Nowadays it is used to a greater extent for tourism purposes.

Describe the changes in the american consumer economy in the 1950s and their relationship to the rise of popular mass culture.
Nikolay [14]
Thanks to the post World War II boom, the American economy during the 1950's shifted towards developing consumer goods/resources that would become part of the popular culture.

A perfect example of this is the development of suburbs. After World War II, the US had a huge increase in marriage rates and babies born, as many soldiers who came back from World War II were looking to settle down and start a family. This resulted in the development of communities like the Levittowns (seen originally in Long Island, NY). These communities provided affordable houses with modern conveniences for thousands of American families.

Along with this, the development of shopping malls helps feed into consumer culture during this time. Families started to spend money on commodities such as washers, dryers, and even television sets. By the end of the 1950's, over 65 million TV's had been sold, establishing the standard of television as a focal point of the American household.
