Answer:

The correct answer is option A) "Manhattan Project".

Step-by-step explanation:

The Manhattan Project was the name given to a series of research and development projects that looked for the design and construction of the first nuclear weapons. The code name Manhattan Project was given by the government because it was part of the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, a group organized by the Manhattan Engineer District.
