Question

Explanation:

The Neolithic Revolution led to the development of agriculture. This allowed for food surpluses, which in turn enabled people to engage in non - farming occupations like craftsmanship, trade, and governance. Societies became more sedentary, not more nomadic. Social differences emerged rather than being eliminated, and farming was more reliable than foraging, leading to population growth.

Answer:

A. It created food surpluses that allowed people to specialize in different jobs beyond farming.
