Question

american women during world war i gained support for their suffrage movement by _______. a. influential american women in washington d.c. b. working in war time industries c. protesting against the war d. participating in military service

Explanation:

During World War I, many American women took on jobs in wartime industries (like factories producing war materials) to fill roles left by men who had gone to fight. This demonstrated their reliability, competence, and commitment to the nation's war effort, which helped build public support for their right to vote (suffrage). Protesting the war would have alienated supporters, military service was not open to most women in this era, and influential women alone did not drive the broad public shift in support as much as mass wartime labor did.

Answer:

B. working in war time industries
