Answer:

It increased the slave population

Explanation:

The reason is because the cotton gin produced so much more cotton, the slave owners wanted more production with the gin which meant more slaves are needed to operate the gins.

Answer:

Without the cotton gin, slaves had to hand-pick the seeds from cotton one-by-one, and it was a lengthy process. But with the cotton gin, they were able to produce the cotton a lot faster.

This caused slave-owners to get more slaves since the cotton gin could produce so quickly with great effort and result.

How did agricultural development influence the locations of emerging civilizations and the jobs of people who lived there?
frozen [14]

Agricultural development led early societies to settle. Settlements required growing food and a lasting source of water. That's why these early civilizations were born around rivers. The proximity of rivers facilitated access to fertile soil and, logically, to water.

Once a civilization has a stable source of food it can start growing surplus of it, which creates the possibility of trade. That is, stable food production is a base for the complexification of a society that can lead to the creation of other jobs, like the merchant.

It also enables a society to complexify its social structures, to build cities, to develop religion and culture which creates more jobs.
