Question 20 • FL-2100310-United States History

What is one similarity between Ellis Island and Angel Island?

Answer
A
Both served immigrants of mostly European descent.
B
Both served immigrants of mostly Asian descent.
C
Both often detained immigrants for weeks or months.
D
Both required that immigrants pass health inspections.

Explanation

Both Ellis Island and Angel Island inspected immigrants for health problems before allowing them to enter the United States. The immigrants served were not mostly from the same regions, and long detentions were much more characteristic of Angel Island than Ellis Island. Therefore, the shared requirement was passing a health inspection.
