Hello!I need help with my homework. What causes did the transcontinental railroad do? Thank You for your help.
Answered by Reed
What causes? Was it taking up the cause of the homeless, or civil rights, or environmental causes?
Answered by Reed
In other words, I have NO idea what the question is asking. Do you need to know what caused the railroad to be built? Do you need to know what effect the railroad had on the economy, or social development, or what?
Answered by Ms. Sue
Are you asking about the reasons for and the benefits of the transcontinental railroad?
Answered by Steph
*sorry* I need the causes that happened during the railroad was constructed. I got one. Is this correct? While the railroad was begins constructed more homes were built. Is that one?
Answered by Ms. Sue
Yes. But that was a minor event caused by the transcontinental railroad.

The word "causes" is misused here. I still don't know what you mean. I'm guessing, but I think you mean the effects of the railroad. Read this for information and understanding:
