Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Since I cannot see the data,  am trying my hardest. Check below for comments.

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

In the early part of the Industrial Revolution natural power sources such as water and wind were used as power. Later, new power technologies such as a steam power and electricity played a major role in allowing the Industrial Revolution to grow.

The transformation of power technology in the Industrial Revolution had repercussions throughout industry and society. In the first place, the demand for fuel stimulated the coal industry, which had already grown rapidly by the beginning of the 18th century, into continuing expansion and innovation.
