Question

question 4 (10 points) listen the massive influx of people into california after the gold rush led to: a) increased immigration by chinese and mexican citizens to work in the mines. b) the creation of an egalitarian socioeconomic order because all of the settlers there were subjected to the same harsh environmental conditions. c) passage of legislation to protect the land - ownership rights of native americans and mexican communities who already lived there. d) a temporary respite from the national debate over slavery because industrial pollution in cities like los angeles meant that no one in their right mind wanted to move there.

Explanation:

After the California Gold Rush, there was a high - demand for labor in the mines. Chinese and Mexican citizens immigrated in larger numbers to work in these mines. There was no creation of an egalitarian order; instead, discrimination was rife. Native Americans and Mexican communities faced land - grabbing and no protective legislation was passed for them. The national debate over slavery was not affected by industrial pollution in California cities.

Answer:

A. increased immigration by Chinese and Mexican citizens to work in the mines.
