Correct Answer: A. production of specialized goods

Explanation

Division of labour is the separation of a work process into a number of tasks, with each task performed by a separate person or group of persons. This leads to specialization as people get to work on specific tasks and become efficient and expertise in that area. In this regards, division of labour allows the agents/people to focus on areas of advantage due to natural factors and skill levels.
