Answer:

Option: C. The internment camps were the government's response to the growing fear and hostility toward Japanese-Americans.

Explanation:

After the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor during the Second World War, many of the West Coast Americans turn their anger towards American Japanese. Rumours spread through newspapers about American Japanese being spies in America. According to the government, the building of the internment camps was constitutional because it was based on military urgency and not on race. Americans Japanese were not willing to go to the internment camps because they were not involved as they portrayed their property, and farmland confiscated.
