Giuliana Salazar · Answer 1

C. Globalization occurred as a result of advances in technology and increased international trade.

Kyla Chapman · Answer 2

The correct answer is letter C.

Globalization occurred as a result of advances in technology and increased international trade. This the correct answer because it is the only answer choice that makes a claim and addresses the topic of factors that cause globalization. The first option is simply a definition, which is not the same as a thesis. Options B and D talk about results of globalization, not causes of it.
