The answer is : A) An Increase in the size and power of organized crime operations

This is because prohibition led to the growth of the illegal sale of alcohol, which in turn made a lot of black market and underground salesmen earn an immense amount of wealth and power.

This resulted in the creation of gangs and organized crime, all in the benefit from profiting from the illegal sale of alcohol.
