Solution

The correct option is D Large scale migration
There were large scale effects of Industrial Revolution. The industrial revolution saw the use of coal, fossil fuels, and other forms of energy. These expelled toxic chemicals causing air and water pollution. The Industrial Revolution also created large employment opportunities. However, the life for the labouring class turned miserable. Along with the working conditions, housing was also a huge problem. The houses were tiny and dirty and often unsanitary. The shift to mass production in industries saw a rise in factories being set up. This led to a decline in agriculture because people migrated from villages to industrial towns in search of jobs and a better income.
