Correct answers: 1, 3, and 4.

- The government (e.g., the Cadet Nurse Corps) expanded nurse training so women could serve in military and wartime medical roles.
- The federal government funded wartime childcare centers (through measures like the Lanham Act) to support working mothers.
- The military created women’s units such as the WACs and the WASPs.

Statement 2 is incorrect — while women did work on wartime science projects, Eleanor Roosevelt did not specifically convince the Manhattan Project leaders to hire female chemists.
