Question 9 (essay worth 10 points) (mc) new technology leads to bigger cities in the 1800s, the united states was still a very young nation, trying to solidify its identity. the industrial revolution began in great britain, a fast development of society following the introduction of machines. the united states was slower than great britain to fully embrace the changes. yet key technological developments caused a rapid growth in american urban areas. better farming methods and tools in the 1800s increased food production. americans were able to grow enough food for their families as well as to sell. the abundance caused food prices to fall. the expansion of cotton and the growth of textile factories in northern states produce the first wave of american industry. more people turned to work in northern factories as a way to support their families. thousands of immigrants to the united states also settled in or near port cities, looking for work. even today, the need for work is a common reason people move to urban areas. as a result, cities grew in numbers of people and physical space. as more people and businesses moved in, they needed buildings for living and working. they needed ways to move around the city. we call this process urbanization. in 1820, the united states had only a few cities of 10,000 residents or more. about seven percent of u. s. residents lived in urban areas. the number of cities with more than 10,000 people grew quickly over the next 40 years, especially in the northeast and midwest. by 1860, about 20 percent lived in cities. philadelphia and new york city were the most populated cities in 1860 and would soon reach one million residents. the urbanization of the united states quickened due to technology improvements. without innovations in food production, the factories could not have grown so quickly. the trend quickened after 1860 and continued throughout the 21st century as well. by 2007, more americans lived in or near cities than they did in rural areas. select a sentence from the body of this article that can be removed without affecting the author's explanation. place the sentence in quotes and explain why it is an unnecessary detail.

Which part of the story shows how kiara and tanya's differences affect their friendship? kiara and tanya were the best of friends. when they were 10 years old, they always went everywhere together. all their friends knew that if they found one of them, they would find the other. anyone who didn't know them thought that they were twins because both kiara and tanya had long, silky red hair and pale complexions. they were even similar in height and build. they were more like sisters than friends. but as similar as they were in appearance, they were just as different when it came to their personalities. this difference didn't affect their friendship, at least not for a long time. kiara always got out and participated in activities and competitions. tanya was happiest when reading a book at home. kiara was outgoing and talkative. tanya was quiet and shy. kiara was popular, and people were drawn to her because of her ability to make quick friends. tanya hardly had any friends besides kiara. as they grew older, kiara managed to make a large group of friends. tanya, on the other hand, still remained shy and reserved. this difference in their personalities eventually caused a rift between the two friends. tanya would refuse invitations to parties and movies that kiara invited her to. she just didn't want to hang out with people she didn't know that well. kiara couldn't understand why. she thought tanya disliked her friends. eventually, kiara and tanya both realized that they had outgrown one another. they still remained friends, but they were not as close as they once had been.
