Questions come from the Bluebook question bank.

While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:

  • In 1897, African American inventor Andrew Beard invented an automatic coupler.
  • It improved on the existing design of train car couplers.
  • It made the job of connecting train cars safer.
  • In 1938, African American inventor Frederick Jones invented a mobile refrigeration system.
  • It improved on the existing design of food transport trucks.
  • It enabled trucks to carry perishable foods farther.

The student wants to emphasize a similarity between Beard’s invention and Jones’s invention. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?
