1. what is the legacy of the civilian conservation corps?

resistance against and resentment of the federal government on the part of farmers
large areas of the plains that are once again covered in native grasses and sod
over 800 national parks, 3 billion new trees, hundreds of miles of roads, and hundreds of new levees, dams, and bridges
the end of the drought and the return of the region to bountiful farmland

Explanation:

The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was a New Deal program focused on environmental conservation and infrastructure development. It employed young men to carry out large-scale public works and conservation projects, leaving a tangible legacy of built and preserved public lands and structures. The other options are incorrect: farmers did not widely resent the CCC (it provided economic support), the CCC's work was broader than just Plains native grasses, and it did not end the Dust Bowl drought.

Answer:

over 800 national parks, 3 billion new trees, hundreds of miles of roads, and hundreds of new levees, dams, and bridges
