Explanation:

The Battles for Chattanooga were crucial in the Civil War. After these battles, the Union army's victory meant they had control over important railroad lines in the region. This was a significant strategic gain. Option A (control of the Mississippi River) was more related to the Battle of Vicksburg. Option C (attack on Confederate capital) and Option D (forcing Confederates back to Virginia) were not direct results of the Battles for Chattanooga.

Answer:

B. The Union army gained control of key railroad lines.
