d. It allowed ships to cross directly between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.

Explanation:

This is the main reason why the United States felt that it was important to complete the construction of the Panama Canal. The United States knew that the construction of the Panama Canal would allow trade to be conducted in a more efficient way, as it would allow ships to cross directly between the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans. Because of this, the United States was willing to take over the project.

the phenomenon that would be cited as evidence of increased economic interdependence between europe and the americas is  the development of mercantilism.

this theory suggests that the wealth of a country depends on its economic assets, or capital.

the group i'm selecting: greeks.

a first group of greek immigrants came to the us in the 1850s. the second group came to america starting in the 1890s due to economic opportunities they didn't have back in their home caused by the hardships of ottoman rule. greek immigration was 90% male, many of them expected to work and return to greece after earning enough capital, but ultimately had to remain in the us after the greek genocide.
