Answer: A. Support for suffrage increased.
During World War I, with many men serving in the military, there was a significant need for labor to support the war effort. Women stepped into roles that were previously held by men, including factory work, administrative positions, and even in some military capacities. As women effectively took on these roles, proving their capabilities and importance to the nation's economy and function, it increased public support for women's suffrage—the right for women to vote.
