What was one immediate reason for the rise of protests in the February Revolution?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Food shortage and factory lockout

The correct answer is A, food shortage and factory lockout. In Petrograd, wartime disruption reduced the regular supply of bread and other essentials, while factory owners’ lockouts added unemployment and anger among industrial workers. These immediate hardships transformed existing dissatisfaction into mass demonstrations and strikes. The protest movement was therefore connected to material conditions, not to a sudden discovery of gold, foreign travel by peasants or a new church festival. Those alternatives have no direct connection with the February 1917 disturbances. The governing idea is that short-term economic crises can trigger wider political movements when people already distrust an unpopular government.
