Choice A. is correct.

There was a surge of Europeans racing over to the New World in order to conquer what was there and claim it as their own. However, there were the complications of millions of Native Americans dying off from the diseases brought over by the Europeans in the Old World and millions of Africans were shipped to the Americas to serve as slaves.
