Answer:Making Economic Decisions

Individuals are forced to make trade-offs every time they use their resources in one way and not in another. The cost of making a trade-off is known as opportunity cost—the value of the next best alternative that has to be given up to do the action that is chosen.

How did the settlement patterns change during the industrial revolution
NISA [10]

) Increase in agricultural production. New inventions and methods (better irrigation, steel-tipped plow, etc) led to much greater food production.

2.) Urbanization. As less labor was needed on farms and more labor was needed in emerging factories, people moved to the cities.

3.) Mass production. Increasingly large and efficient factories allowed goods to be produced on a scale never before seen.

4.) Mass consumption. Goes hand-in hand with mass production. For most of history people made or grew almost everything they consumed. Now they bought a large portion of what they consumed.

5.) Mechanization. Machines began replacing human labor in agriculture, industry, and transport.

6.) Pollution. Once the steam-engine became the principle source of energy (as opposed to water power), vast amounts of coal were mined and burned to provide energy. This is still the case today.

7.) Wealth inequality. The distribution of wealth wasn't particularly equal before the Industrial Revolution, but with the emergence of Robber Barons and "Wage Slaves" inequality increased even more.

8.) Agitation for Labor Rights. The appalling conditions of industrial work caused workers to gradually demand better treatment: Child Labor Laws, Women's Labor Laws, Safety Regulations, the Emergence of Unions, etc

9.) Increase in International Trade. Improved transportation and larger quantities of goods to trade vastly increased the amount of international trade.

10.) Colonization. European powers acquired colonies as sources of raw materials, but more importantly as markets for their manufactured goods.

11.) Emergence of the middle class. A large percentage of the population (bourgeois) enjoyed decent wealth and high standards of living due to industrialization. They were often factory owners, foremen, engineers, lawyers, or other professionals. In many cases, member of the bourgeois became wealthier than members of the old-money lords.

12.) Social Reform in General. With urbanization came urban problems: homelessness, crime, poverty, etc. Prohibitionists, suffragists, and religious organizations (Salvation Army, etc) tried to solve these issues.

13.) Scientific and Technological Innovation: A greater portion of the population (though still small) was free to attend universities and contribute to discovery and progress.

14.) Military expansion. New weapons were created and then manufactured on a grand scale: firearms, naval vessels, munitions, etc.

15.) As you said, transportation. Canals, railroads, steam-liners, airplanes and Zeppelins, etc

Which African country of out Guinea Liberia Nigeria Senegal is the most populated
Zinaida [17]

The correct answer is - Nigeria.

Nigeria is the most populated country from the countries on the list, in fact, it is the most populated country in all of Africa. Nigeria has an estimated population of 173 million people, Senegal little more than 14 million, Guinea has little more than 10.6 million, and Liberia little less than 3.5 million people.

Nigeria has almost twice bigger population than the second placed Ethiopia in the African continent. The population of this country is predominantly young, the birth rates are relatively high, and the life expectancy is constantly on the rise. It is expected that the trend of increase in the population of Nigeria will continue for the foreseeable future, just as the population of the African continent as a whole.
