Answer 2

Option: C. Representatives from twelve colonies met at a Continental Congress in Philadelphia.

Step-by-step explanation:

The tensions began to rise in America as the British Parliament imposed the Coercive Acts in colonies. The issue of several taxes and the shooting in Boston led to an increase in hostility among the British officials and settlers. By looking at this situation and to the response to the Acts imposed on colonist, several representatives from 12 colonies called in Philadelphia. Thus, the First Continental Congress assembled to order on September 1774.
