Answer:

B.) Many thought a German submarine had sunk the heavily

loaded ship.

Step-by-step explanation:

A.), C.), and D.) are incorrect because they make no connection between the sinking of the USS Cyclops to World War 1.

B.) is correct because it connects the USS Cyclops (the heavily loaded ship) to World War 1 (German submarine).
