1. The correct answer is A. During earlier immigration, the majority of immigrants came from Western/Northern Europe (for example from Italy), while in the later 1800s, immigration was largely from Southern/Eastern Europe. 2. The correct answer is D. Since men were going in the military, there was a need for jobs to be filled. Thus, women and minorities were able to take jobs that previously weren't available to them. 3. The correct answer is B. There were no high taxes on the wealthy, which actually might have curbed the effects of the Great Depression. 4. The correct answer is D. Similar to question 2, there was a need for women to fill certain jobs because men weren't available. This led to women enlisting in the military to work civilian jobs.
