Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

the United States didn't join the war officially until the Zimmerman telegraph was sent to Mexico by Germany in order to convince then to join the other opposing countries of the u.s. (lowkey forgot what they were called, maybe the axis powers?) anyways, the u.s. was aiding the United Kingdom with weapons, etc before they officially joined- thus leaving them with less casualties
