Question

why were new england soldiers called minutemen? they could be ready to fight in 60 seconds they were named after a british general they practiced for one minute every day

Explanation:

The Minutemen were colonial militia members who could be ready to fight at a minute's notice (or in about 60 seconds) to respond to threats. The option about being named after a British general is incorrect, and practicing for one minute daily is not related to their name origin.

Answer:

A. They could be ready to fight in 60 seconds
