Question

Which of these was a consequence of a growing textile industry in the United States?

Decreased need for unskilled workers

Decreased number of inventions

Increased cost and reduced efficiency

Increased demand for slave labor


is it d
pls help me

Answer 1

I would say A) fewer cotton farms in Great Britain

Because the growth of the textile industry prompted legal changes allowing the textile mills to flood the land. The land was covered by water to fuel the water wheels of the mills and could no longer be used for farming. As a result people moved to the cities. This would also kill B as a possible answer.

Additionally, depending on the time period D would be invalid due to the fact that Great Britain banned the slave trade before the United States did.

Answer 2

thank you.

What was the main result of the invention of the Clermont in 1807?

This steamboat built by Robert Fulton helped speed up industrialization and increase interest in canal and river transport.

This passenger train built by Henry Ford provided immigrants an easier way to move into the United States from other countries.

This steam locomotive built by James Watt greatly increased trade because it could move goods at a speed of 15–20 miles per hour.

This streetcar built by John McAdam ran on railroad tracks and was the first mass public transportation vehicle for moving freight and passengers

Answer 3

I'd say yes, D. Cotton was the raw material for textiles (along with wool), so more cotton was needed, grown in the "slave states."
