28. Otto Loewi fled Germany because of which event?
The Great Depression
Österreichischer Bürgerkrieg
Rise of Nazism
Berlin Wall construction
Answer
The rise of Nazism prompted Otto Loewi's departure from Germany. The Nazi regime's growing influence and escalating persecution of Jewish individuals, including Loewi, created an increasingly hostile environment for scientists of his background. To ensure his personal safety and academic freedom, Loewi made the difficult decision to leave his home country and relocate elsewhere, ultimately leading to his significant contributions in the United States.
