The correct distinction is: **Indentured servants agreed to work for a certain period of time (usually about five to seven years) in exchange for freedom at the end of that period, while slaves were forced to work indefinitely without any hope of freedom.**
So, the closest correct answer from your list is: "indentured servants agreed to work for no money in exchange for land and tools after a certain period of time, while slaves were forced to work indefinitely," but it's important to clarify that indentured servants did not typically receive land and tools at the beginning, but rather completed their work contract and then received land, tools, or other benefits upon their release.
