Guglielmo Marconi

Is it B?

Answer 1

The correct answer is D. Andrew Carnegie. Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

First, Heinrich Hertz was German and Guigiermo Marconi was Italian - they were not Americans, so we can reject those options. Samuel Morse did important contributions to communications, but the best answer is Andrew Carnegie - Carnegie was a successful industrialist and he also directly supported American Industry, he himself was very rich but he also generously donated to charities.
