Explanation:

During the Industrial Revolution, capitalism created well - paying non - manual jobs like managers, accountants, and clerks. These jobs contributed to the growth of the middle class. Factory jobs mainly increased the working class, overcrowding is a result rather than a cause of the middle - class rise, and the decline of monarchies and nobles taking service jobs is not a main factor in middle - class growth.

Answer:

B. The practice of capitalism led to many well - paying jobs that didn't depend on manual labor.
