Women running small businesses is an example of which change?

Correct answer: Expansion of women's economic opportunities

The direct answer is Option B: expansion of women’s economic opportunities. A small business gives a woman a way to earn, manage work, deal with customers and take an economic role outside purely domestic duties. Step by step: running a business is productive economic activity; productive activity can create income and experience; income and experience expand economic choices; therefore women running small businesses shows widening economic opportunities. Option B is correct. Option A is wrong because it describes the return of an old burden, not a new opportunity. Option C is wrong because a business does not itself mean that the king has absolute power. Option D is wrong because small business activity is not evidence of foreign rule. The example should not be exaggerated: it shows an opportunity and changing economic roles, not that every woman became economically independent. Memory cue: business, work and income point to economic opportunity.
