the government closed businesses that did not produce war products.

the government banned workers in important industries from striking.

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• Closing businesses not producing war products wouldn't directly prevent work stoppages in vital factories.
• Banning vacations is not a typical or effective measure to prevent work stoppages.
• Forcing 200,000 businesses to join the war effort is about getting businesses involved, not preventing work stoppages in existing vital factories.
• During WWII, the US government banned workers in important (war - related) industries from striking to ensure continuous production for the war effort, as strikes could halt vital factory work.

Answer:

D. The government banned workers in important industries from striking.
