Answer: 4. the gig economy

Step-by-step explanation:

The gig economy has developed as a result of the advancements in communications technology that has allowed people to use the internet and telephones to work from anywhere.

This allowed people and companies to outsource jobs over the internet that people like Meaghan are able to complete from the comfort of their own homes and get paid for doing so. This type of work ballooned during the Corona Pandemic.
