Answer:

A. Quartering of soldiers

Step-by-step explanation:

The grievance was initially created by the British government to force American colonies to provide British soldiers with foods and housing in case they ask them to.

This led to a lot of problems.

There were many occurrences when Those soldiers came to the house of poor Families and forcefully took their foods away with violence. They do this because they believe their actions were backed by the law

To address this, the third amendment of the constitution was created The amendment protected the citizens by banning the soldiers from taking the foods/other resources without consent of the original owner.
