Which was a consequence of the United States' entry into World War I?
Ottoman forces shifted their troops to fight against the Allied powers on the western front
German troops became demoralized and eventually surrendered in the face of the arrival of fresh US troops
Mexico attacked the United States in order to reacquire territory it had lost in the Mexican-American War
Russia troops pulled out of the war as the presence of American troops made it unnecessary for them to continue to fight
Is it B?
The correct answer is B for those wondering
wrong war
B is correct just took the test
Yes, option B is correct. German troops becoming demoralized and eventually surrendering in the face of the arrival of fresh US troops was one of the consequences of the United States' entry into World War I.
To arrive at this answer, we can look at the context of the United States' involvement in World War I. The United States initially adopted a policy of neutrality at the start of the war in 1914. However, as the war progressed and German actions, such as unrestricted submarine warfare and the Zimmermann Telegram, posed a threat to American interests, the United States eventually declared war on Germany and its allies in April 1917.
With the entry of the United States into the war, fresh troops from America were sent to the Western Front in Europe. These troops were well-rested and well-supplied, which provided a boost to the Allied forces. On the other hand, German troops were already facing exhaustion and depletion after years of fighting. The arrival of the US troops further weakened German morale and contributed to the eventual surrender and end of the war.
So, in conclusion, the consequence of the United States' entry into World War I was that German troops became demoralized and eventually surrendered in the face of the arrival of fresh US troops, which makes option B the correct answer.
A doesn't make sense and I couldn't find anything about Russia in my text. Because of the Zimmerman telegram, I'm also assuming Mexico never got the message.
I agree with B. Russia's withdrawal from the war had little, if anything, to do with America joining the war. What was going on in Russia in 1917? That's a fascinating story that had world-wide consequences, too. :)
B is correct, as Reed has said.
Keep in mind the word "eventually," though! The Allied troops landed in Normandy on June 6, 1944, but it took their slogging through France, Luxembourg, Belgium, The Netherlands, and well into Germany before the Germans surrendered on May 5, 1945.
