Answer;

A. Water supplied power and a means of transportation.

Explanation;

The Industrial Revolution began in the 18th century, when agricultural societies became more industrialized and urban.  Industrialization marked a shift to powered, special-purpose machinery, factories and mass production.

A number of factors contributed to Britain's role as the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. For one, it had great deposits of coal and iron ore, which proved essential for industrialization.

The Industrial Revolution relied on water for power and transport until the coming of the steam engine and the railways.
