Question

following world war i, technological advances in transportation greatly impacted american society. identify the developments that are related to advances in transportation technology, then put them in the correct sequence from first to fourth.
1 \t growth in personal automobile ownership
2 \t large - scale production reduces costs of automobiles
3 \t advances in assembly line mass production
4 \t commuters face traffic congestion

Explanation:

To determine the sequence, we analyze the causal relationships:

1. First, advances in assembly line mass production (item 3) enabled efficient manufacturing.
2. Then, large - scale production reduces costs of automobiles (item 2) as mass production lowers per - unit costs.
3. Next, lower costs led to growth in personal automobile ownership (item 1) as more people could afford cars.
4. Finally, increased car ownership resulted in commuters face traffic congestion (item 4) as more cars were on the road.

Answer:

1. 3. advances in assembly line mass production
2. 2. large - scale production reduces costs of automobiles
3. 1. growth in personal automobile ownership
4. 4. commuters face traffic congestion
