The Industrial Revolution cause people to move from farms to cities because there were an increased number of factory jobs in the cities.

Option D

Explanation:

After industrialization, the new farming technology made the work on farms even more easier and the requirement of farmers on farms reduced. Then the people started migrating to the cities in order to fill the factory jobs.

The skills requirement was also not high. This provided them a constant work. At that time, factories were in high demand by the workers. Apart from this ,the cities offered them all the convenience which they are deprived of in the rural areas. Industrialization led to urbanisation by creating job opportunities that is the main cause of the migration.
