Answer 1

a). It created a need for additional natural resources to be used in manufacturing

d). It created the need to find new markets to sell European goods.

Step-by-step explanation:

The industrial revolution caused major changes to the continent.

One way is Europe wanted to get more natural resources from their colonies. Major countries in Europe such as Spain, France and Britain all used natural resources from their colonies mostly in present day Asia, Africa and the Americas. One example is Britain using Black Pepper from its Indian colony at the time. Black Pepper was considered a wealth status in Britain in the time, and rich people used it in medicines and food. Another example in France's colony of ivory coast. They colonized it at the time to take advantage of its ivory and other rare materials to sell in the trade market.

Another way is the opposite. Just like how European forces took goods from their colonies, it gave them an opportunity to sell their goods there. One example is the Spaniards colonizing Peru, which they gave them farm animals, and westernized their culture making a majority of them convert to Christianity. The modern day country is about 75% Catholic now, and that was thanks to European goods and influence.

Hope that helped a lot.
