Explanation:

• Question 6: After the Pearl Harbor attack, Japanese - Americans on the West Coast were seen as security risks. Executive Order 9066 led to their forced relocation to internment camps. They were not forced to give up citizenship (A is wrong). Japanese - American soldiers served in the military (B is wrong). There was no such law about federal employment prohibition (D is wrong).
• Question 7: When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, Germany and Italy, as Japan's allies (by the Tripartite Pact), declared war on the US. The US did not attack a German ship (A is wrong). The embargo was mainly on Japan (B is wrong). They had no plan to take over the US (C is wrong).
• Question 8: WWII propaganda like "We Can Do It!" encouraged women to enter the workforce. About 6 million women joined. Working conditions didn't improve much (A is wrong). There was no equal pay (B is wrong). Many women joined the workforce (C is wrong).
• Question 9: Women did not hold combat positions on the battle front. They did contribute to home - front conservation (A is a contribution), participated in military branches (like WACs, WAVES etc., C is a contribution), and worked in war production, business, and agriculture (D is a contribution).
