Answer: C.) They wanted to use the waterways to transport goods and crops to distant markets.

Explanation:

The Northwest Territory was a territory created by the US Congress in 1787, the government created the Northwest Ordinances that organized land policy and territorial government in the area. Most of the settlers preferred to choose land close to the lakes and rivers because the territory was inhabited until that moment, so if they were closer to rivers they would be able to transport goods and crops from a long distance, which would make life easier in that region.

During the Civil War, the South’s use of enslaved labor gave it a way to keep plantations running (Option "C" is the correct one).

Enslaved African Americans, who lived in the South of the US, responded to the American Civil War (1861–1865) in a variety of ways. Some slaves assisted the Confederate war effort, while others were forced to support the Confederacy by working on farms or plantations, in factories and households. There were many slaves who could escape and earn their freedom. Those slaves who remained on their plantations and farms worked as agricultural laborers while their production helped feed both civilians and soldiers. However, much of the wartime agricultural work in the South was carried out by female slaves, since males slaves were hired  for the Confederacy's military and industrial works.
