To find the answer to this question, we need to analyze each option and determine which one accurately describes the beginning of the American Revolutionary War. Let's break down each option:

A. Great Britain and France declared war, known as the French and Indian War.
The French and Indian War was a conflict that occurred prior to the American Revolutionary War, between 1754 and 1763. While it did involve Great Britain and France, it is not the correct answer for the beginning of the American Revolutionary War.

B. American colonists fought the British at the Battles of Lexington and Concord.
The Battles of Lexington and Concord, which took place on April 19, 1775, marked the first military engagements of the American Revolutionary War. This option accurately describes the beginning of the conflict and is therefore the correct answer.

C. Great Britain signed the Treaty of Paris, acknowledging America’s independence.
The Treaty of Paris was signed in 1783, after the American Revolutionary War had ended. While it acknowledges America's independence, it does not describe the beginning of the war.

D. The Founding Fathers wrote the Constitution of the United States of America.
The Constitution of the United States was drafted and ratified in the years following the American Revolutionary War. It is not related to the beginning of the war.

Therefore, the correct answer is B. American colonists fought the British at the Battles of Lexington and Concord.
