b. streamline the production of cotton.

c. produce more power to run machines.

d. improve the quality of soil on farms.

The answer is (A) increase the speed of textile production

Back in the days of the industrial evolution, many things that could be done by hand in the manufacturing industry could now be done by machines. During this time, one of the most important inventions was the Spinning Jenny.

Invented in 1764, Spinning Jenny was a machine developed for making cloth-like wool and cotton. Before this pivotal invention, many suchlike machines only had one spindle. However, this machine allowed people to make several threads since it had multiple spindles. Significantly, more thread could be produced with fewer workers.

The purpose of a spinning Jenny is (a). to increase the speed of textile productions.

Spinning Jenny was invented by James Hargreaves in 1764 in England. It has a great contribution in the development of the industrialization of weaving during the Industrial Revolution.
