Hi TootyFrooty,

Explanations for each answer choice are below:

Answer Choice (A): According to the passage, many connecting events happened in between outlawing segregation and the formation of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. Therefore, it was not a direct result.

Answer Choice (B): This answer is taken directly from line 4 of the passage, “ furthered…the anticipation of broader changes.” This is the correct answer.

Answer Choice (C): I can see how this answer might be tempting, considering the ruling was a motivating factor to developing the sit-in. However, the ruling was not a replicable method students could use, they had to develop their own.

Answer Choice (D): The first sentence of the passage states that the 1950s to 1960s were a period of profound growth, with the ruling being in the mid-1950s. Therefore, this did not concluded a period of profound growth, but happened in the middle of it.

Answer Choice (E): We do not know if this ruling galvanized already established organizations, but it did indirectly lead to the formation of new ones. However, to our knowledge, the formation of other organizations was not immediate, as reflected in the passage (ruling: 1954, creation of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee in 1961).

I hope this helps!
