Explanation:

First Question (Examine the chart...):

To answer, we analyze each option:

• The Pullman Strike was not a success (it was suppressed).
• The AFL's early downturn survival isn't a typical "most noticeable" trend from labor - union charts of the era.
• The Haymarket Riot hurt the Knights of Labor, not helped.
• Union membership in the first decade of the 1900s (post - major strikes and union organizing) did skyrocket, which is a key trend in labor history charts of that period.

• Pullman was the employer, not the strike leader.
• Eugene Debs led the American Railway Union which organized the Pullman Strike.
• The Governor of Illinois and President Cleveland were involved in responding to the strike, not leading it.

Mary "Mother" Jones was a labor activist who fought for better conditions for all laborers, but she is most known for her work with child laborers (e.g., the March of the Mill Children) and also for broader laborer causes. However, her work with child laborers was a defining part of her advocacy. Among the options, "child laborers" is the group she is most associated with helping significantly. (While she helped laborers in general, the question asks which group she helped most, and her focus on child laborers stands out.)

Answer:

union membership skyrocketed in the first decade of the 1900s
