Answer:

e. A and C.

Step-by-step explanation:

American neutrality in the Great War: was wanted by pacifists and social reformers, but not feminists, and was indirectly threatened by Britain’s naval blockade, because it led to German submarine warfare. Most American citizens wanted to remain neutral. They wanted to profit from isolationism. But American ships that were carrying goods to Britain were damaged by German mines. So, although most people wanted to remain neutral U.S. was threatened by Britain's naval blockade. The German sinking of U.S. merchant ships eventually drove the United States into the Great War.
