Answer

<p> A - True</p>

Explain

<p> The statement consists of two claims. The first, about the Second Agricultural Revolution, is accurate. It was mostly due to mechanization - things like the spread of machinery for sowing seeds and harvesting crops, alongside scientific breeding of both crops and farm animals. The Green Revolution part of the statement is also accurate. A key part is the development and use of high-yield strains of crops (winter wheat, for instance, or rice), crippling famine was averted and significantly more food became available not only in regions where these new strains were grown and harvested but also in those regions where incoming supplies of wheat and rice changed the environmental balance. Other complementary advancements were pesticides, irrigation and synthetic nitrogen fertilizer. Therefore, since both claims in the statement appear to be true.</p>
