- Demand for goods increased.
- Populations grew rapidly.
Why: Higher demand created markets that encouraged mechanization and factory production, and rapid population growth supplied both labor for factories and greater consumer demand. The other options are incorrect because the Industrial Revolution involved urban migration (not moving back to rural areas), fewer families producing their own food (not more), and while landholding changes displaced rural people, the key drivers were increased demand and population.
