Answer:

  • The transport of slaves from Africa to the Americas, during which nearly 20 percent of slaves died.

Explanation:

The Middle Passage was the phase of the triangular exchange which a large number of Africans were coercively transported to the New World as a feature of the Atlantic slave trade.

Boats left Europe for African markets with made goods, which were exchanged for bought or kidnapped Africans, who were transported over the Atlantic as slaves; the slaves were then sold or exchanged for cruderaw materials, which would be transported back to Europe to finish the voyage.

Answer:

The answer is A.  The transport of slaves from Africa to the Americas, during which nearly 20 percent of slaves died
