what was one result of the large numbers of immigrants settling in the cities of the north in the mid - 1800s?
a. laws allowing noncitizens to vote
b. peaceful cultural exchanges
c. unemployment in factories
d. problems between cultural groups

Explanation:

• Option A: In the mid - 1800s, non - citizens were generally not allowed to vote, so this is incorrect.
• Option B: With large numbers of immigrants from different cultures settling in Northern cities, cultural clashes and tensions were more common than peaceful exchanges, so this is incorrect.
• Option C: The mid - 1800s in the North was a period of industrial growth, and immigrants provided a large labor force for factories, so unemployment in factories was not a result of immigration at that time; in fact, factories were in need of workers.
• Option D: When large numbers of immigrants from various cultural backgrounds settled in Northern cities, there were often problems such as cultural misunderstandings, competition for resources, and ethnic tensions between different cultural groups.

Answer:

D. Problems between cultural groups
