Answer 1

B.) Colonists boycotted certain British goods.

Answer 2

B.) Colonists boycotted certain British goods.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the years leading up to the Revolutionary War, the American colonists became unhappy with several laws passed by the British Parliament. Some of these included the Stamp Act, the Townshed Acts and the Tea Act. Boycotts were encouraged both to save money (due to the growing debt of the colonies) and to force Great Britain to repel the laws. Along with the boycotts, there was a growing non-importation movement among colonial merchants.
