The correct answer is:
A. It was used because the Japanese held many islands in the Pacific.
Explanation:
Island hopping was a war strategy used by the United States under the lead of General Douglas MacArthur and Admiral Chester W. Nimitz to get closer to Japan. This war strategy consisted in taking control of small Islands in the Pacific and setting military bases that would serve as launching points for taking control on the next Island, so the US troops could bypass and isolate heavily fortified Japanese positions (leapfrogging).
