WORLD HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -During the Second Agricultural Revolution, humans industrialized farming to produce greater crop yields with fewer workers. This allowed larger cities to form and paved the way for the First Industrial Revolution.

Detailed explanation-2: -Before the Industrial Revolution, artisans with specialized skills produced most of Europe’s manufactured goods. Their work was governed by the traditions of their craft and the limits of available resources. Human and animal muscle and the waterwheel were the era’s main energy sources.

Detailed explanation-3: -The basic difference between industrial technology and agricultural technology is that while agriculture stopped at effective reproduction through the application of natural phenomena, industrial technology made it possible to transform natural phenomena.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Industrial Revolution was a changing point for many aspects of human life and the overall standard of living. Agriculture changed as well during this time as technology, such as the seed drill, the Dutch plough, was able to increase human productivity and led there to be higher outputs of food (Johnson).

Detailed explanation-5: -Archeological evidence illustrates that starting in the Holocene epoch approximately 12 thousand years ago (kya), the domestication of plants and animals developed in separate global locations most likely triggered by climate change and local population increases.
