Answer:

All answers are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given choices were:

A. Enslaved African Americans had less legal recourse than indentured servants.

B. Enslaved African Americans, once seasoned and trained, cost far less than indentured servants.

C. Enslaved African Americans were farther from their families.

D. All answers are correct.

All of them are correct. A is correct because indentured servants had legal recourse and would be free after completing their contract. But slaves were slaves forever and had next to no rights when compared to servants.

B is correct because slaves were not that expensive even if they had much experience behind them.

C is also correct.
