You are correct. The conditions that led to the Great Depression include high consumer debt, risky investments, and uninsured bank deposits. During the 1920s, many Americans took on high levels of debt and engaged in risky investments in the stock market, which led to the collapse of the stock market in 1929. The failure of many banks that had made risky loans, combined with a lack of federal deposit insurance, led to widespread losses of savings and further economic turmoil. Therefore, the correct answers are high consumer debt, risky investments, and uninsured bank deposits.

You are correct. The map suggests that the Panama Canal shortened the shipping route from Washington (represented by Seattle on the map) to the eastern United States (represented by New York). Shipping goods from Washington to the east coast of the United States would have previously required navigating around the southern tip of South America, which would have taken much longer than using the Panama Canal. Therefore, the correct answer is D) It shortened the shipping route from Washington to the eastern United States.
