A) Food surpluses and the specialization of jobs led to increased trade.

Explanation:

The Neolithic Revolution is the transition of societies from gathering and hunting to agriculture. Crop cultivation led to storage of larger amounts of food that allowed larger populations. It is the age when the first civilizations emerge; all major ancient civilizations had dominated agriculture. A larger, more diversified economy also led to job division.
