How did the Homestead Act contribute to the development of America’s natural resources?
a. The act allowed people to develop those resources.
b. The act allowed people to invest money in those resources.
c. The act allowed people to identify those resources.
d. The act allowed people to locate those resources.

a. The act allowed people to develop those resources.

Explanation:

The Homestead Act was passed in 1862 during the Civil War in order to facilitate westward settling and expansion. It allowed citizens to have free land to the west as long as they agreed to settle on it and cultivate crops. It was a surprisingly well-thought-out move on the government's part!

A is correct because the natural resources mentioned in the question are America's fertile land to the west; settlers did not invest money, identify, or locate that land. They knew it was there, they just had to go settle on it and plant crops.
