To check your answers:
1) How was the manufacturing industry in Texas affected by geographic location?
The correct answer is D) The railroads sped shipping time.
Explanation: Texas' geographic location played a significant role in the growth and development of its manufacturing industry. The railroad system, which was well-established in Texas, allowed for faster shipping and transportation of goods. This advantage helped in the expansion of the manufacturing industry as it facilitated the movement of raw materials and finished products.
2) Which postwar industry was the fastest growing between 1947 and 1972?
The correct answer is A) Petrochemical manufacturing.
Explanation: Between 1947 and 1972, the petrochemical manufacturing industry experienced significant growth in Texas. This growth was primarily due to the state's abundance of oil and natural gas resources. The petrochemical industry includes the production of chemicals and products derived from petroleum and natural gas, such as plastics, synthetic fibers, and fertilizers.
3) Which statement best represents how wartime jobs affected women?
The correct answer is D) Women experienced the independence of working outside the home.
Explanation: During wartime, many men were drafted into the military, leaving vacancies in various industries that needed to be filled. This led to an increase in job opportunities for women, who often took on positions traditionally held by men. This experience allowed women to gain a sense of independence and empowerment from working outside the home, challenging traditional gender roles.
