What was the objective of the anaconda plan?

a. to win a series of victories in the west and then "snake" across the mississippi river to take control of southern states in the east
b. to burn confederate land and cripple the agricultural production of the south
c. to lead a march of destruction through southern cities, undermining the region's industrial base
d. to seize the mississippi river and the gulf of mexico to cut off important shipping routes of the south

Hi!

The ultimate objective of the Anaconda Plan was to 'strangle' the South by shutting off many ports they used for supplies, along with controlling the Mississipi river.

With this in mind, the best option is going to be D. The goal of the plan was to seize the Mississippi River, and essentially end the south as a snake would.

Hopefully, this helps! =)

The price of oil and inflation are connected in a cause and effect relationship, that is, when the price of oil increases, inflation also increases in an economy. this is because, oil is a major input in the economy, that is, it is used for critical purposes such as fueling of vehicles for transportation, for running of industrial generators and machines, for heating homes, etc.for instance, if the price of oil increases in an economy, it will increase the cost of production for those using the oil in their production processes and they will automatically increase the cost of their products in order to offset the extra costs. this leads to general increase in the prices of products in the market and result in inflation.
