Hey guys! I really need help before 6pm. Does anybody know what the main difference was between the First and Second Industrial Revolution?

The initial focus of first industrialization was on textiles; cloth was in demand by almost everyone. Early textiles were produced by a cottage industry system. It would later provide raw cotton and oversee the work of various productions. Individual families, usually farm wives and daughters, would master one part of the process—spinning, dyeing, weaving and so forth. The Second Industrial Revolution, known as the Technological Revolution, was a phase of the larger Industrial Revolution corresponding to the latter half of the 19th century until World War I. It is considered to have begun with Bessemer steel in the 1860s and culminated in mass production and the production line. The Second Industrial Revolution saw rapid industrial development in Western Europe (Britain, Germany, France, the Low Countries) as well as the United States and Japan.
