Answer:

c. by buying all the other steel mills Explanation:

The Bessemer Process

This is a process known as horizontal integration.

Andrew Carnegie also created a vertical combination, an idea first implemented by Gustavus Swift. He bought railroad companies and iron mines. If he owned the rails and the mines, he could reduce his costs and produce cheaper steel.
