Solution
The correct option is D Ellis Island, New York
The typical immigrant to the United States during this period would have been a poor, unskilled labourer from Europe. Most immigrants arrived by steamship, travelling in steerage. Beginning in 1892, most immigrants passed through the Ellis Island Immigration Station in New York City. Here, Bureau of Immigration officers gave immigrants medical inspections and legal interviews to determine whether they were “fit” to enter the country.
