Question
the red scare
following the events of world war i, americans became scared of numerous things they worried threatened the country.
the fear of communism became known as the red scare, as red was the color symbolic of the october revolution and the new flag of the soviet union.
americans also became fearful of immigrants and the new ideas they may have had.
in 1921, a quota system began in america, which greatly limited the number of immigrants allowed into the country based on their country of origin.
the quota held that a number of immigrants equal to only 3% of a given ethnicitys population in the u.s. would be allowed in.
this eventually led to the closing of ellis island as an immigration station.
what happened as a result of the quota system in america in 1921?
a new immigration station opened on angel island.
ellis island closed as an immigration station.
ellis island was overrun and fell into disrepair.

Option C about Ellis Island being overrun and in disrepair is not supported by the given text which specifically says it closed due to the quota system.
