what did the selective service act mean for american men?

a. they could not be drafted into the army.

b. they could be drafted into the army.

c. they were required to register for civilian jobs.

d. they were allowed to volunteer for the army.

Explanation:

The Selective Service Act established a system for the draft (conscription) of men into the U.S. military. Option A is incorrect as the act enabled drafting. Option C is wrong because it was about military service, not civilian job registration. Option D is incorrect since it was a draft (mandatory in eligible cases) rather than just voluntary enlistment.

Answer:

B. They could be drafted into the army.
