Answer 2

Explanation:

The First World War badly hit the Russian industries

• Russia's own industries were few in number and the country was cut off from other suppliers of industrial goods by German control of the Baltic sea.
• Industrial equipment disintegrated more rapidly in Russia than elsewhere in Europe.
• By 1916, railway lines began to break down. Able-bodied men were called up to the war.
• As a result, there were labour shortages and small workshops producing essentials were shut down.
• Large supplies of grain were sent to feed the army. Thus, bread and flour became scarce for the people in the cities.
