was a civil engineer who invented twisted wire-rope cable.
B
also worked on the design of the George Washington Bridge.
C
took over the building of the bridge after his father died.
D
emigrated to the United States from Czechoslovakia.

Explanation

John Roebling was a civil engineer and pioneered the manufacture of twisted wire-rope cables, which were used in suspension bridges. His son Washington Roebling took over construction of the Brooklyn Bridge after John died, so choice C describes his son. The George Washington Bridge was built decades later, and Roebling emigrated from Prussia, not Czechoslovakia.
