What is true about the panama canal? a) it greatly reduced the time required for ships traveling from the eastern to the western united states b) it eliminated the need for railroad lines between the east and west coasts of the united states c) it was constructed across land containing few plants or animals d) the united states was the first nation to attempt its construction

The correct answer is A.  It greatly reduced the time required for ships traveling from the eastern to the western United States

Explanation:

The Panama Canal is a man-made structure located in Panama that connects the Pacific and the Caribbean Ocean, because of this the canal is used for maritime trade as it reduces the time for ships to cross from the east of America to the West. Additionally, the construction of the Canal took several years and was supported by different companies and countries as the project was started by France in 1881, but in 1904 the project was taken by the U.S. Besides this, the construction and the expansions planned for the future have been criticized due to the impact they have on environment as this zone is the habitat of multiple animal and plants species.

Therefore, the statement that is true about the Panama Canal is " It greatly reduced the time required for ships traveling from the eastern to the western United States" because the construction of the Canal implied ships could cross from one side to the other in a short time, rather than surrounding all the continent.

the navigation act prevented the colonies from exporting to countries other than britain and it prevented the importation of goods by other countries as well. so i believe the correct answer is d. other nations could not deliver goods to the colonies.
