a) True
b) False

Answer 1

The claim that proprietors in a proprietary colony only had the responsibility to collect profits is false. Proprietors were responsible for governance and development, which included creating laws and ensuring the defense of the colony.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that in a proprietary colony, the Proprietors have no responsibilities except to collect the profits is false. Proprietary colonies, such as those in early American history, were granted by the British Crown to one or several proprietors who had full governing rights and responsibilities.

These responsibilities included but were not limited to creating laws, appointing officials, and defending the colony. Indeed, their role was not just profit-centered, but also involved governance and development of the colony they owned.
