Answer 1

The statement that most accurately contributed to the industrialization of the U.S. in the late 1800s is: "There were many immigrant workers willing to work long hours for low wages."

This influx of immigrant labor provided a significant workforce that was essential for the growth of industries during that period. The other statements you've provided do not reflect the primary factors that contributed to industrialization during that time.
