    All these factors contributed to the Industrial Revolution. There is not an option that is not relevant.

    Explanation:

    This is a difficult question as phrased because it can be argued that all these factors contributed to the Industrial Revolution (1760-1840). There were plentiful natural resources like cotton and coal. There was a great amount of wood available because forests were being cleared as agricultural production expanded at this time and the agricultural industry took more and more forestland and converted it to agriculture. The invention of the steam engine allowed for more mechanized forms of production like looms that made cloth and increased textile manufacturing. And according to scholars like Eric Hobsbawm, transportation was relatively low cost and easy at the time of the Industrial Revolution, canals were built and railways were laid.
