How did wildcatters most influence the development of jobs in urban centers in texas? a) they required services so new jobs, including those in banks and shops, became available. b) they took over much of the space in urban centers, so fewer overall jobs were available for other people. c) they encouraged people in other areas to work on oil rigs too so the diversity of jobs in the area decreased. d) they brought their family members with them so new jobs, such as school teachers and nannies, became available.

The correct answer is "A".

The development of the Oil Industry during the early decades of the 20th century led to making Texas one of the most powerful states in the country. The discovery of the Texas Oil field in 1930 by Columbus Marion Joiner laid the path to an industry that is responsible for the development of very prosperous urban areas, such as the city of Dallas.

These urban centers, which were once settlements, experienced great growth as oil operations demanded services such as banking, groceries, and health. These needs made it possible for enterprises who operated in these fields move to these places and therefore, bring many people to the area, as many job openings were held.
