Answer 1

Option D. The decline of Europe’s large cities was not a result of the Industrial Revolution in Europe

Step-by-step explanation:

There was a sharp rise in the formation of towns into cities because industrialization made the people who were working in the country side to search for greener pastures. So they migrated to urban areas and were settled near factories.

Workers were given allowances and housing facilities by their factory owners so as to increase the output and contribute to the rise in national income.

Industrialization paved way for the emergence of crowded cities. There was no electricity and coal was the only fuel used to run the machines. This resulted in darker and dirty factories and epidemics broke out. Buildings were coated with coal grime and dirt that the sanitation was really a cause of concern during industrialization.
