Solution

The correct option is A A combination of the Spinning Jenny and the Water Frame.
In 1779, Samuel Crompton invented the Spinning Mule. This was a combination of both the Spinning Jenny and the Water frame. It was much more efficient. It spun hundreds of threads simultaneously and produced eight fine and coarse threads.
