Answer:

The continued attacks at the ships and killing of American citizens by Germany led to US entering the World War.

Explanation:

At the start of the First World War, the United States was a neutral nation and would have likely remained one had it not been for the continued attacks by Germany. At this point in time, America was just a trading partner of Britain and did not really get involved in any of the ongoing war between the Allied Powers of which Britain was a member and the Central powers of which Germany was a part.

But the attack and continued warfare on the ships sailing to America by Germany led to the entry of the United States into the war. First was the sinking of several ocean liners, including <em>Lusitania</em>, and <em>William P. Frye (a private vessel)</em>, which the Germans believed carried weapons. The British/ Americans maintained these ships were just passenger ships with American citizens. Germany did not stop the attacks on vessels and ships, continuously killing American citizens and continued the sea warfare, thereby pushing President Woodrow Wilson to declare the US's decision to side with the Allied Powers in the war.

What is one thing the women’s rights movement accomplished?
lana66690 [7]
B is the correct answer. When looking at these answers, you have to think about whether or not this seems like something that would have been one of the goals of the women’s right movement.

With answer A, it’s unclear. This could be related to women’s rights, but considering that gender or women are not mentioned, it’s unlikely.

With answer B, it is clear that this is about gender equality, which is what specifically the women’s rights movement was fighting for. This answer is correct.

With answers C and D, it is similar to answer A. Both are improvements to equality, but are not gender or women specific, so it is unlikely that is was done by the women’s rights movement.
