HELP PLZ W NUMBERS 2 N 3

i believe the answer is d.

can someone me with this question:  

1) the end of the conflict between the north and the south didn’t just mark the end of a war; it marked the end of an entire way of life.” which statement best describes what this statement means?  

a) the southerners were no longer free and were controlled by the northern states.

b) the industrial economy in the north was not sustainable.

c) slavery became illegal, which changed completely the south’s labor force and the agricultural economy was destroyed.

d) the states decided to relinquish their independence and return to britain’s rule.    

in the 1900s, the united states was still a largely agrarian society with a very fast growing industrial and manufactering sector.

the south of the country was the bread basket of the country with large farm lands making up a majority of the economy.

in the north and more specficially north-west, growing manufactering and export sector had made the united states into a powerful exporting country.

this peaked in the 50s and 60s when the united states became the largest economy in the world and the largest exporter.

today, the majority of the united states economy is made up of the services sector that includes banking, insurance, music, movies, hotels etc.
