Advantages and disadvantages to island hopping?

ADVANTAGES: Leapfrogging would allow the United States forces to reach Japan quickly and not expend the time, manpower, and supplies to capture every Japanese-held island on the way. It would give the Allies the advantage of surprise and keep the Japanese off balance.

DISADVANTAGES: Island hopping isolated enemy troops, who could stil  damage the supply routes and wreak the havoc whenever allied troops landed. As land in between the major islands (that the US have taken) is still teeming with enemies, it would mean that ships and airplanes would not be able to be as safe, or make a landfall to get more freshwater or other supplies on board.

Good luck :) <3

Explanation:

in contrast, the biological controls are self-sustaining, inexpensive and very effective once established. biological control could be used on thousands of golf course acres, improving their biodiversity and quality as wildlife habitat. in the process, the golf industry will be shown to be leaders in an environmental stewardship program of benefit not only to the lands they manage but also to the watersheds in which they exist.

the correct answer option is: weapons.

explanation:

tensions rose as the two opposing superpowers competed for 'weapons'.

referring to the cold war (1945-1991), the two superpowers, usa and ussr, experienced a phase of struggle and conflict with each other. these two superpowers considered each other as a threat to their survival and thus opted for policies to strengthen their positions.

the two superpowers never went to war with each other directly but competed for weapons to preserve their positions.
