b) the industrial revolution caused an increase in the amount of goods being produced in factories and those goods needed to be moved and sold to different markets.

c) transportation was viewed as a luxury and since people were making more money in factories, the demand for luxury increased

d) the revolution returned work to the country, so people har to utilize transportation to go back and forth from more densely populated areas.
