B. Africans were immune to some European diseases and experienced at European farming techniques.

Step-by-step explanation:

During 16th century, Spanish started to import many Africans as slaves to work in the European farm. Americans were prone to European diseases and they also demanded large pay for the work. Thus, the government decided to import slaves from Africa.
