Answer 1

I can give you a few pointers to help out:

a) One of those technologies was the transistor. It's basically the foundation of everything electronic today from radios to microchips.

c) This one a bit more involved, but one of the things that has definitely changed is the role of women in the workplace. A century ago, women working in a factory or an office as anything more than a secretary or clerk was a foreign concept. Today, they're CEOs, inventors, programmers, etc.. There's still work to be done in terms of equality, but it's very different from what it used to be at the dawn of the 20th century.
