Answer:

Correct answer is c . rebel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct answers is C because colonies were already in the mutiny against Britain when Declaration was signed, and they wanted to finally express their willingness to separate from Britain.

A and B are not correct as this is something that they asked before Revolution, as they were asking for representation in the PARLIAMENT, and even started to boycott the British goods.

D is not correct as the last plea for this was sent in 1774 with the Olive Branch Petition.
