Question 1: Why was the Industrial Revolution one of the most important developments in human history, and why did it happen so

There is no options, it is a written assignment, would really appreciate it if someone would help me.
The first Industrial Revolution, by moving from muscle to mechanical power changed the pace of production. As that pace changed and the hours of production increased, the ability to increase earnings practically without limit presented itself, since one could reinvest earnings to gain even more earning power.
Industrialization created an abundance of goods and resources. Workers noticed that despite the increase in production they participated in the creation of, they themselves were not seeing much of the increases to their wages. Workers saw themselves as contributing to the formation of the industrialized and automated system and didn’t want to be left out of reaping the abundance it promised.
