Answer;

A) Production could be organized more efficiently on a larger scale.

Explanation;

Corporations arose through an increase in industrialization with large-scale agriculture and greater manufacturing and production output. These corporations tapped into natural resources and began to utilize methods that allowed them to maintain and grow their power. One method created by Swift was vertical integration in which a company controlled every aspect of their industry, from the raw materials to the advertising of the finished products.

These large firms then used techniques like predatory pricing to drive their competitors out of business. Rockefeller pioneered horizontal integration in which he forced local companies to merge unto his conglomerate, allowing him to create a trust, monopolizing the entire oil refining industry.

6. Discuss why many Americans left the farms and headed to the cities. Be specific and explain in detail. (5 points)
jonny [76]

Answer:

Many Americans left farms and headed to the cities because the industrial revolution opened up many jobs in the cities. Also, the industrial revolution created more farm technology that allowed farmers to do the day's work with fewer people. This led to mass unemployment and peoples' dispersal into cities. This also caused cities to grow.

What role did the Great Depression of 1929 play in making the Nazi party a force in German politics?
mixas84 [53]
During 1930–1933, the mood in Germany was grim. The worldwide economic depression had hit the country hard, and millions of people were out of work. The unemployed were joined by millions of others who linked the Depression to Germany's national humiliation after defeat in World War 1. Many Germans perceived the parliamentary government coalition as weak and unable to alleviate the economic crisis. Widespread economic misery, fear, and perception of worse times to come, as well as anger and impatience with the apparent failure of the government to manage the crisis, offered fertile ground for the rise of Adolf Hitler and his Nazi Party.

Select all the industries that saw a revolution during the Industrial Revolution:
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Transportation, Communication, Labor

Explanation:

The industrial revolution coincided not only with the beginning of the mass use of machines, but also with a change in the whole structure of society. It was accompanied by a sharp increase in labor productivity, rapid urbanization, the beginning of rapid economic growth, and an increase in the living standard of the population.

Of great importance was the emergence of railways. The first steam locomotive was built in 1804 by Richard Trevitick. In 1807, Robert Fulton built the world's first Clermont steamer, which cruised the Hudson River from New York to Albany. In 1819, the American steamer Savannah crossed the Atlantic Ocean for the first time.

The first electric telegraph was created by Russian scientist Pavel L. Schilling in 1832. Subsequently, the electromagnetic telegraph was built in Germany by Karl Gauss and Wilhelm Weber (1833), in the UK by Cook and Wheatstone (1837), and in the United States the electromagnetic telegraph was patented by S. Morse in 1837. Morse's great merit was the invention of the telegraph code, where the letters of the alphabet were represented by a combination of short and long signals - “dots” and “dashes” (Morse code). The commercial operation of the electric telegraph was first launched in London in 1837. In 1858, a transatlantic telegraph connection was established. Then a cable was laid to Africa, which made it possible to establish a direct telegraph connection between London and Bombay in 1870.
