(C) James Hargreaves invented the Spinning Jenny in 1764.
The source passages do not explicitly mention James Hargreaves or the Spinning Jenny's inventor, but this is a standard CBSE Class 10 fact (Chapter 4 – The Age of Industrialisation). The Spinning Jenny was invented by James Hargreaves in 1764, allowing multiple spindles to be spun at once. Richard Arkwright is associated with the cotton mill, and James Watt with the steam engine — common distractors in this MCQ.
