a. Increase organization of workers

b. The search for new sources of raw materials and new markets

c. Increased competition between industrialized countries

d. English settlement in the new world

Answer:

d. English settlement in the new world

Explanation:

The industrial revolution started in mid 1700s-mid 1800s. It's the period when people start to implement modern technologies to replace human labors in the economic production.

English settlement in the new world occurred way before the industrial revolution started. They started settling in the new world in the mid 1500s. So,  industrial revolution is not the one causing it.
