Answer:

B. The plant transformed the city into one of the major industrial centers in the United States.

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture shows Bell Bomber Plant that was constructed during the 40s and supplied US Army forces with various planes,

Georgia was the perfect place, as, after Perl Harbor, Roosevelt administration wanted to keep it outside of coastline, and Atlanta was very well connected.

Bell Bomber employed many people, worked much better than expected and helped the local economy blossom and transform itself. It was the largest facility of the kind on the deep South. Even after it was closed, after World War II, its effect remained stable and Marrieta remained industrial center.
