The correct answer is **D. American oil production was enough to meet all of the country’s needs**.
During the 1970s energy crises, it became clear that the United States was consuming more oil than it could sustainably produce, heavily relied on foreign oil, and that OPEC had significant power over oil prices and supply. However, American oil production was not sufficient to meet the country's needs, which is why the crises arose.
