Answer 2

After enslaving native populations, ‘European colonists’ often imported enslaved Africans for forced labour on ‘sugarcane plantations’.  

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

There was a large number of sugar plantations which grew in numbers and the Europeans imported slaves from Africa to work on their sugar plantations. The slaves were brought in through trade from the ‘West and Central African coast’.
