the cold war ended with the:

a. anti - communist revolutions in eastern europe.

b. signing of the strategic arms reduction treaty.

c. election of george h. w. bush.

d. collapse of the soviet union.

Explanation:

The Cold War was a geopolitical conflict between the US and the Soviet Union. The Cold War ended when the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, as this marked the end of the Soviet - US rivalry. Anti - communist revolutions in Eastern Europe were part of the process but not the final end. The signing of the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty was an arms - control measure during the Cold War, not the end of it. The election of George H.W. Bush was a US domestic political event and not related to the end of the Cold War.

Answer:

D. collapse of the Soviet Union.
