The correct answer is C. Technology developed during the Industrial Revolution allowed for the mass production of goods such as textiles.
The Industrial Revolution was a social, technological, and economic transformation that started in Great Britain in the 18th century and then expanded through Europe, North America, and later through the rest of the world. This process consisted of the shift from an economic model based on agrarian production and commerce to the production of manufactured goods developed thanks to the advancements in science and technology.
Since then, a transition took place that would end with centuries of the workforce based on manual labor and the use of animals, being these substituted by machinery for massive industrial production and transport of goods and passengers. This transition started with the textile industry and coal extraction of the 18th century. This allowed an increment in production and sped up the transport of goods, which ended up increasing the general wealth of the new industrial economies. This new wealth permitted the growth of the population alongside with a general urbanization and, in the long term, an increment in the quality of life.
