Question

during world war i, british and american warships were at grave risk of german u - boat, or submarine, attacks. warships were easily visible against the surrounding ocean. so british artist norman wilkinson proposed a scheme to address this concern. rather than trying to hide the ships, he suggested painting them with bright shapes to confuse the enemy. more than a thousand ships were painted with bold patterns, including complex patterns on the bow and stern to confuse onlookers about which end was which. this technique, called dazzle camouflage, may not have actually confused the enemy, but it was effective in making the crews of the \dazzle boats\ feel safer. which figure does this text primarily use? problem - solution compare - contrast sequential

Explanation:

The text first presents a problem (warships at risk of U - boat attacks due to visibility). Then it describes a solution (dazzle camouflage). This follows the problem - solution structure.

Answer:

problem - solution
