Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The era of "trust-busting" took place before World War I, from the late 1800s up until 1914. This was a time of great industrial growth in the United States, and many businesses became large monopolies or trusts that controlled entire industries. The government began to break up these trusts in order to promote fair competition in the marketplace.
