← HistoryWhich risk increased due to introducing silkworm rearing Constantinople?
A)Monetary inflation affecting trade networks
B)Widespread disease impacting silk production
C)Dependence increasing on specific regions✓
D)Loss leading superior silk technology
💡 Explanation
Increased dependence on regions, such as Khotan, occurred because the BOMBYX MORI DOMESTICATION meant Constantinople's silk supply became reliant on specialized silkworm raising, rather than diversified textile production. Therefore vulnerability grew as a consequence, rather than monetary or technical ones initially.
