2. Write a paragraph describing the allied
strategy used in the Pacific.

Answers

Answer:

The truism surrounding the Pearl Harbor tragedy is that the US was provided with the destruction of the battleship fleet. Navy with a wake-up call putting it on the Pacific path to victory. Like all such popular beliefs, there is a grain of truth in it, but there is also considerable misunderstanding of the hard processes that the U.S. military, and especially the navy, had to go through before they were fully prepared to fight and prepared to deal with the Imperial Japanese Navy on a relatively equal basis. Pearl Harbor was, in fact, just the opening round of a series of crises that molded and influenced both American strategy and conflict itself. It is then the intention of this paper to investigate American naval and military strategy during the first ten months of the war and gain insight into what actually happened and how the services, particularly the navy, were transformed from a peacetime force with a peacetime bureaucratic culture into the amazing instrument they were to become by the summer of 1943. The crucial point on which this paper will focus will be the reciprocal strategic influence and operations on American strategic leadership at the sharp end of the fight against Japanese forces during the first 11 months of the Pacific War – a period that laid the foundation for the eventual American triumphs of 1943 and 1944.

What could be done to increase turnout constitutional amendment elections?

Answers

Political parties have used state-level ballot initiatives to motivate voter turnout in different ways.
For example, in 2004, the Republican Party put a constitutional amendment on gay marriage on the ballot in many states. This move motivated Republican voters to show up on Election Day to vote against the measures, which defeated the initiatives and helped President George W. Bush beat John Kerry.
In 2018, the trends in ballot initiatives show a focus on transportation and taxes.

Based on the data, which conclusion can be drawn about the impact of the 19th Amendment?

The high percentage of women voters has had a political impact.

Despite the opportunity to vote, women do not vote as often as men

Despite the ability to vote, women register in lower numbers than men.

The percentage of women voters remains high even decades later.​

Answers

Answer: The percentage of women voters remains high even decades later.

Explanation:

(This is wrong, look like the best answer but NOPE) The high percentage of women voters has had a political impact.  

(Look at graph Not true) Despite the opportunity to vote, women do not vote as often as men.

(Look at graph Not true) Despite the ability to vote, women register in lower numbers than men.

(Leaves this to be the best answer according to graph) The percentage of women voters remains high even decades later.

Based on the data, the conclusion which can be drawn about the impact of the 19th Amendment is that, "The percentage of women voters remains high even decades later.​"

What is the 19th Amendment?

The 19th Amendment in the United States Constitution was passed by the Congress on June 4, 1919 and was sanctioned on August 18, 1920.  The 19th Amendment granted women the right to vote. Beginning in the mid-19th century, women marched, organized, petitioned, and practiced civil disobedience to win the right to vote, but it took them decades to gain victory.

Achieving this milestone was difficult for American women as it was a lengthy and difficult struggle but it was a victory. Therefore, The 19th amendment legally guaranteed American women the right to vote.

When we observe the data it is seen that the 19th Amendment had a huge impact on increasing number of votes of American women. After the right of votes was given to American women the votes have been increasing and they have exceeded men, even decades later.

Therefore, the percentage of women voters remains high even decades later.​

Hence, option D is correct.
