Answer:

Right choice is:

C. to work on the plantations in the colonies

Step-by-step explanation:

The Tras-Atlantic Trade of slaves was motivated by the need of fresh labor force in the New World, in North America, South America and in the Caribbean. The colonial economies had started to cultivate tobacco, cotton, sugar and other crops. In the case of Spanish colonial America, diseases, war and mistreatment had resulted in the death of millions of Native tribal people.
