This period saw a shift towards mechanization, which reduced the demand for skilled labor. In contrast, the other options do not accurately reflect the consequences of the Industrial Revolution. ;

The selected answer is A, which states that the Industrial Revolution resulted in fewer skilled jobs and lower wages for workers. This period saw a transition to factory-based work, leading to reduced demand for skilled labor and often poor working conditions. While the revolution introduced new technologies, it also concentrated wealth among factory owners rather than benefiting the workers significantly.
