Answer 2

The correct answer is A) Cities offered new blue- and white-collar jobs. > Women gained more freedoms through work.

The diagram that shows one social impact of urbanization in the United States is the following: Cities offered new blue- and white-collar jobs. > Women gained more freedoms through work.
