The processes of urbanization, specialization, and trade in medieval europe led to a decrease in economic opportunities for the lower

The processes of urbanization, specialization, and trade in medieval Europe significantly influenced economic opportunities for different social classes. While these developments contributed to the growth of the middle class in urban centers, they also resulted in a decrease in economic opportunities for the lower class. Specifically, the rise of a new system of bartering controlled by merchants limited access for the lower class, and there was a notable decline in opportunities for apprenticeships. How did these dynamics shape the overall economic landscape during this period?

The processes of urbanization, specialization, and trade in medieval Europe led to "the growth of the middle class in urban centers" since far more people were able to find employment and save money.

The correct answer in this case is that it lead to a new system of bartering controlled by merchants. Merchants during medieval times in Europe played an amazingly important role because they basically could control the flow of trade and how goods could be distributed in certain cities for example.
