Answer:

I would pick lion

Explanation:

I would have chosen lion as our nation's symbol. Lion can represent multitude of things such as strength, justice, fearlessness, and power! All of these were part of the US when colonies first united and fought against british. Lion also resembles a great military might and US has this even to this day and had this during old times as well as evident by our win against the notorious british regime.

Having a lioness to be part of country's symbol also resembles being caretakers as a great mother providing protection. US has mostly been a safe refuge for people seeking the protection of its warmth and security. The colonists came to US mainland (although not orginally called US) for better life thus lioness or lion are great symbols.

I hope this answers your question!

How did the oil embargo end up hurting OPEC? Can be multiple answers.
amid [387]

The correct answer are <em>C) Countries traded with other oil-producing nations, and D) Nations stopped building automobiles for a while. </em>

The OPEC oil embargo completely stopped the exports of oil to the United States. The decision was taken by the 12 members of OPEC on October 19, 1973, in retaliation for the U.S. decision to re-supply the Army of Israel. What happened then was that <u>oil prices quadrupled</u> in the subsequent months. The embargo ended in March 1974.

After the embargo, the United States set in motion measures to conserve and develop domestic energy sources. The government created the <u>Strategic Petroleum Reserve</u> and limited the speed in highways to 55-miles-per-hour.
