Which statement about the importance of cuba's geographical location is true?

a. american planes crossing the atlantic would have to fly through cuban airspace.

b. cuba's position next to the panama canal made it a threat to the american shipping.

c. soviet missiles based in cuba could reach the u. s. with little warning time.

d. cuban warplanes could easily reach the americans cites on the west coast.

C. Soviet missiles based in Cuba could reach the U.S. with little warning time.  Cuba is an island located only a couple hundred miles off the coast of Florida.  During the Cold War, Cuba was a Soviet ally and missiles placed there by the Soviets could reach the U.S. very quickly because of Cuba's proximity.  This was especially problematic during the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Choice A is incorrect because planes could leave the U.S. and cross the Atlantic and fly north, never coming near Cuba.

Choice B is wrong because Cuba is far north of the Panama Canal, which is located much deeper in Central America.

Choice D is incorrect because Cuba is located on the East Coast, not the West Coast.
