Respuesta :

The correct answer is B.

The Gadsden Purchase was land bought by the US from Mexico. This land established the Mexican-American border that we know today. One of the biggest reasons why the US wanted this land was so that the Southern Pacific Railroad company could continue to build a transcontinental railroad.
