Respuesta :

Answer:

a.

Explanation:

According to my research on United States History, I can say that based on the information provided within the question African Slaves had only a small presence in the colony. African Slave were known to work fields and Virginia was just beginning to colonize so work was mostly on building houses and settling down. Also Virginia had a lot of Mormons which are known to be hard workers who like to provide for themselves.
