The correct answer is letter A

Globalization is a term developed in the 1980s to describe the process of intensifying international economic and political integration, marked by advances in transport and communication systems. Because it is characterized by a worldwide phenomenon, many authors prefer to use the term globalization.

It must be remembered, however, that despite being a recently developed concept, its occurrence is old. Most social scientists date back to the late 15th and early 16th centuries, when Europeans began the process of colonial maritime expansion. With that, it is possible to realize that globalization is not a sudden and consolidated fact, but a process of gradual integration that is constantly expanding.
