D) “The chronometer for the first time allowed absolutely accurate charting of the oceans, with all that implied for establishing safe and rapid shipping routes.”

In this detail the chronometer supports the idea that the invention of the chronometer had a significant effect on British and world culture. It describes how it allowed for accurate charting which led to shipping routes becoming safer and faster. This allowed for better travel and trade among Britain and other countries.

Option A says that the countries were transformed, but it is not clear in the passage that the chronometer affected this. Option B simply describes the sun "moving". Option C describes what the chronometer is made of. None of these support the idea that the chronometer had an effect on British and world culture.
