Answer 2

The Acts of Navigation of England were a series of laws that were dictated on October 9th, of 1651, restricted the use of foreign ships in the commerce of Great Britain and its colonies.

They established that all colonies were subordinate to Parliament, any industrial development of the colonies capable of competing with that of England was prohibited, and that the trade with the colonies was monopolized by English navigators. In this way, the empire was closed to foreign navigation.

This legislation signaled a total integration of the country's trade based on the national monopoly. England's customs revenue increased more than three and a half times between 1643 and 1659.

Because all of this effects and the monopoly of the overseas trade the correct answer is Option A. prohibited colonists from engaging in overseas commerce
