Which of the following was a result of industrialization in the United States? African Americans experienced less discrimination in the South. Large numbers of immigrants moved west to start farms. Large numbers of Asian immigrants returned to their native countries. The gap between rich and poor members of society became larger.
Industrialization has more to do with the rise of big business and city growth. That strikes out the first choice. Try eliminating the answers that are not relevant with the question.
I know. Im guessing its D....?
I would agree with you. Oh, and just a little fact; Industrialization centered on the North, not the South.
Choice C is the least relevant. I don't see how immigrants returning to their native countries would have anything to do with that.
In fact, immigrants that moved to America increased the workforce!
Hmm thanks!
they did but nativists resented them
If you happen to get the answer wrong, message me. I'd like to research some more, if it's wrong of course. *And more workforce meant more production, even though there was discrimination and poor working conditions and such.
Ok, will do! mind looking at another? Which industry did not exist in the United States until the Second Industrial Revolution? steel railroad shipping mining
my guess is a or b...
This site is good citing material if you need it. http://www.theusaonline.com/history/industrialization.htm
So, the question is asking what did NOT exist before then. The SIR began in the 1860's.
Mining has existed since prehistoric times. 'Shipping' is really too broad to define. Do you mean railroad shipping or is that separate?
The history of the modern steel industry began in the late 1850s, which means it DID exist before the SIR.
That leaves B and C. What do you think?
What is sir?
(SIR) Second Industrial Revolution. I abbreviated it, that's all. :)
B is my best guess
Railroads existed before 1860. Since shipping is far too broad, I would say C.
Mining, railroads, and modern steel industry all existed before the SIR. Shipping cannot be defined, so I would go with that. :)
Okay :)
