Answer from: robert7248

Best C. Because the belief was that the Japanese supporters could send messages to off-shore ships.

There was much fear that Japanese Americans would engage in espionage about US naval and military stations on the coast and get that information back to Japan.

According to History Matters from George Mason University:

First attention was given to the problems of sabotage and espionage. ... At San Francisco, for example, convoys were being made up within sight of possible Axis agents. There were more Japanese in Los Angeles than in any other area. In nearby San Pedro, houses and hotels, occupied almost exclusively by Japanese, were within a stone’s throw of a naval air base, shipyards, oil wells. Japanese fishermen had every opportunity to watch the movement of our ships. Japanese farmers were living close to vital aircraft plants. So, as a first step, all Japanese were required to move from critical areas such as these.

Mostly, though, the Japanese Americans were forced into internment camps as a result of anti-Japanese prejudice and fear. Suspicious of anyone of Japanese heritage, the government restricted the civil liberties of Japanese Americans. In February, 1942, President Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9066, which allowed the Secretary of War to designate certain areas as military zones. FDR's executive order set the stage for the relocation of Japanese-ancestry persons to internment camps. By June of 1942, over 100,000 Japanese Americans were sent to such internment camps.
