Respuesta :

Answer:

1) a) job opportunities

2) c) They set aside land and money for affordable land-grant colleges

3) b) factory jobs in American cities

Explanation:

1) The cities were industrial centers and there was a massive need for workers. A pull factor is what makes people want to live somewhere.

2) Passed on July 2, 1862, this act made it possible for new western states to establish colleges for their citizens. The new land-grant institutions, which emphasized agriculture and mechanic arts, opened opportunities to thousands of farmers and working people previously excluded from higher education.

The Second Morrill Act, which provided for annual appropriations to each state to support its land grant college, was passed by Congress in 1890. In addition to appropriating funding, the Second Morrill Act also forbade racial discrimination in admissions policies for colleges receiving these federal funds.

3) Everybody wanted a job to help their families back home. Literacy requirement is a negative and crop failures in Europe would be a push factor.
