Answer :

The outcome of the Battle of Berlin contributed to Cold War tensions following World War II by: c. The Soviet Union occupied Berlin, setting up conflict among the Allies over the administration of postwar Germany. This answer is correct because after the Battle of Berlin, the Soviet Union took control of the city, which led to disagreements among the Allies on how Germany should be governed postwar.
