Answer

Brief Explanations:

  • Question 6: The assembly line is a manufacturing process that breaks down production into sequential steps, allowing for faster production. Agricultural innovation (B) is related to farming methods, slower craftsmanship (C) is the opposite of assembly - line efficiency, and artisan guilds (D) are groups of skilled workers in a pre - industrial context.
  • Question 7: Karl Marx's critique of capitalism centered around the exploitation of workers (B). Capitalism, according to Marx, promotes inequality (not equality - A), and while it may encourage innovation (C) in a technical sense, Marx's main criticism was on the labor - capital relationship. It has no direct relation to supporting monarchies (D).
  • Question 8: The term "proletariat" in Marxist theory refers to industrial workers (B). Factory owners (A) are the bourgeoisie (capitalists), middle - class merchants (C) are part of the petit - bourgeoisie in some Marxist analyses, and landowners (D) are a different class, often associated with feudal or pre - industrial land - based economies.
  • Question 9: The potato famine (B) in Ireland in the 19th century led to mass emigration as people faced starvation and poverty. There were not enough industrial jobs in Ireland (A) to keep people, political freedom (C) was not a major pull factor for emigration at that time, and the expansion of the British Empire (D) was more of a political - imperialist process rather than a cause of Irish migration.
  • Question 10: Industrialization led to urbanization as people moved to cities for jobs, resulting in overcrowding (B). It increased population in cities (not decreased - A), trade often increased with industrialization (not declined - C), and pollution was a major problem (not reduced - D).

  1. A. Faster production
