National attention was drawn to the Scopes trial

of 1925 because the case
(1) represented a conflict between science and
religion
(2) reversed a previous Supreme Court decision
on free speech
(3) upheld the right of veterans to protest in
Washington, D. C.
(4) revealed the extent of prejudice against
immigrants

A major reason why national attention was drawn to the Scopes trial of 1925 was because the case "(1) represented a conflict between science and
religion," since it was over a teacher choosing to teach evolution in schools, which was outlawed in some states.
