Question

which statement highlights how world war ii helped to end the great depression.
select the choice that correctly answers the question.
the economic troubles of the 1930s were worldwide in scope and effect. economic instability led to political instability in many parts of the world. political chaos, in turn, gave rise to dictatorial regimes such as adolf hitler’s in germany and the military’s in japan. these regimes, along with the totalitarian regimes in the soviet union and italy, pushed the world ever - closer to war in the 1930s. when the war finally broke out in both europe and asia,
the united states tried to avoid being drawn into the conflict. but so powerful and influential a nation as the united states could scarcely avoid involvement for long. mobilizing for war meant
millions of men and women joined the armed forces, and even larger numbers went to work in well - paying defense jobs
world war two affected the world and the united states profoundly; it continues to influence us even today.

Explanation:

To determine how WWII ended the Great Depression, we analyze the options. The Great Depression was marked by high unemployment. The statement "millions of men and women joined the armed forces, and even larger numbers went to work in well - paying defense jobs" shows that the war created massive employment. When people got jobs (in the military or defense industries), they had income to spend, which boosted the economy and ended the Depression. The other statements talk about the global scope of the Depression leading to political instability and US attempts to avoid war, which don't directly relate to ending the Depression.

Answer:

millions of men and women joined the armed forces, and even larger numbers went to work in well - paying defense jobs
