Answer:

Right choice:

(1) Loyalists furnished food and shelter for the king's armies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Not all the colonists supported the idea of separating from England, or they did not believe independence was possible. Providing food and shelter to the kingĀ“s troops was an important form of support, one not to be belittled, given the formidable logistic challenges the British Army faced in the 1770s-1780s.
