Explanation and answer:
A rain shadow is a patch of land that has been forced to become a desert because mountain ranges blocked all plant-growing, rainy weather. On one side of the mountain, wet weather systems drop rain and snow. On the other side of the mountain—the rain shadow side—all that precipitation is blocked.
In a rain shadow, it’s warm and dry. On the other side of the mountain, it’s wet and cool. Why is there a difference? When an air mass moves from a low elevation to a high elevation, it expands and cools. This cool air cannot hold moisture as well as warm air. Cool air forms clouds, which drop rain and snow, as it rises up a mountain. After the air mass crosses over the peak of the mountain and starts down the other side, the air warms up and the clouds dissipate. That means there is less rainfall.
You’ll often find rain shadows next to some of the world’s most famous mountain ranges. Death Valley, a desert in the U.S. states of California and Nevada, is so hot and dry because it is in the rain shadow of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. The Tibetan Plateau, a rain shadow in Tibet, China, and India has the enormous Himalaya mountain range to thank for its dry climate.

Answer:
C
Explanation:
In the 20s the USA was considered isolationist, America for the Americans so when a influx of immigrants came in they faced harsh feelings from the born and bred Americans.
This can be confused with racism, if what happened in the 20s happened now it would be but there is a difference between not wanting someone in your country based on race and not wanting someone in your country based on the times ideals. We need to stop judging people from over a century ago like we would today, it was a different time, different ideals and different motives. I am not discounting the presents of racism obviously but pointing out the cultural influences at the time.
that was for free lol
