Answer:
A. It was used because the Japanese held many islands in the Pacific.
Explanation:
Island Hopping was a U.S.'s successful strategy used because of the numbers of Japanese islands in the Pacific. This strategy consisted of targeting and taking control of several Japanese islands in the Pacific that were not well defended, and to construct small military bases and landing strips in them, which would serve them as bases to attack other surrounding islands of Japan, and eventually get close enough to Japan to launch a mainland invasion.
