Answer 2

The correct answer is C) by one or in groups on the auction block.

The way slaves were sold once they reached the Americas was by one or in groups on the auction block.

Once the slaves arrived, the crew of the ship prepared the African slaves for sale. They were sold directly to the landlords or the slaves were sold in auctions.
