The key factor which fueled competition between European countries for colonies in the Americas was C) the desire to control sources of gold and silver. Although Europe did have certain resources, it had definitely depleted itself in gold and silver and there was a sort of race between the big European super powers to enrich themselves as much as they could. This can be especially seen with the silver mines in Mexico which both the Spanish and the French wanted to acquire.

The Cold War had a tremendous impact on the everyday lives of Americans. For example, students in public schools during the 1950's often had to practice "Duck and Cover" drills. These drills forced students to cover their head with their hands and to hide underneath desks. One of the reasons students practiced these drills was in case nuclear warfare between the United States and Soviet Union took place.
In the aforementioned scenario, students would be ducking and covering to protect themselves from the effects of a nuclear attack. This type of drill showed the Americans were constantly in fear of what might happen next between the US and the Soviet Union.
