Answer 1

One of the greatest effects of the Boston Tea Party was that "Great Britain closed the port of Boston," since this greatly hindered colonial trade and caused even more grievances to be voiced by the colonists.

Answer 2

Option: Great Britain closed the port of Boston.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Boston Tea Party was a protest against the taxes by the British. After winning the French and Indian War, the British were in debt. To lessen the burden of debt, they imposing acts on the colonist. The colonists grew angered as they forced to pay taxes. Along with taxes and the massacre in Boston led colonists to fight against the British. For revenge, the colonist dressed as Indians boarded the docked ship and dumped 342 chests of tea in water, which imported by the British East India company. British reacted to the Boston Tea Party by closing the port of Boston.
