Solution
The correct option is B Africa
The
transatlantic slave trade began in the 15th
century, after the Portuguese started exploring the coast of West Africa. At first the number of
enslaved Africans taken was small. In about 1650, however, with the development
of plantations on the newly colonised Caribbean islands and American mainland,
the trade grew.
