What conclusion is BEST supported by the paragraph above

Answer 1

Ellis Island was an important immigration station in the United States, processing more than 12 million immigrants between 1892 and 1954, but it closed down due to a decrease in immigration and the passing of anti-immigration laws.

Answer 2

The best conclusion supported by the paragraph would be that Ellis Island was a crucial entry point for immigrants coming to the United States, but its significance declined after anti-immigration laws were passed in 1924. Even though fewer people came through the island after 1924, it still processed over 12 million immigrants between 1892 and 1954 before ultimately closing in 1954.
