You seem to be looking for some information/explanation. I'll provide that.
The 1802 Health and Morals of Apprentices Act was the earliest reform act passed by the British government during the Industrial Revolution. The Act set rules regarding the employment and housing of children by factory owners.
Background and detail:
It had been the practice of many factory owners to employ orphans and children from very poor families in their factories, calling them "apprentices." They did not pay the children in wages. They could get by providing only lodging and food for them. The conditions in factories for the children were harsh and awful. Many children got sick and died.
Meanwhile, Robert Owen was pioneering new ideas for working together at the New Lanark, Scotland, cotton mill that he managed. Owen's was one of the pioneers of socialist theory. He strongly favored better working conditions, and influenced Prime Minister Robert Peel to put the Health and Morals of Apprentices Act through Parliament in 1802. The Act put into law the following rules for factories and child labor:
- A maximum 12 hour working day for children
- Mills were required to have sufficient windows for a flow of fresh air
- Regular washing of walls and floors
- Separate bedrooms for boys and girls
- No more than two children per bed
- Children needed to be given instruction in reading, writing and arithmetic
- On Sundays, children were to have at least an hour of Christian teaching provided by a Church of England minister

"During his tenure, U.S. President James K. ... Polk accomplished this through the annexation of Texas in 1845, the negotiation of the Oregon Treaty with Great Britain in 1846, and the conclusion of the Mexican-American War in 1848, which ended with the signing and ratification of the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo in 1848."
Jackson became the first President whose home state was neither Massachusetts nor Virginia, while Adams was the second to lose re-election, following his father, John Adams.
That would be C. the northeast
This was location of most of the original colonies, and it doesn't make sense for any other region to be more urbanized and industrialized. The US didn't inhabit the entire continent at once, instead, they slowly made their way across. Industrialization takes a long time, and it only makes sense that the longest inhabited part of the country would be the most industrialized at that time.
