The correct answer is **C. Indentured servitude was mainly used in the northern American colonies and in the southern American colonies, chattel slavery was more common.**
In the colonial period, especially in the South, chattel slavery became the dominant labor system for agricultural production, particularly for crops like tobacco, rice, and later cotton. Indentured servitude was more prevalent in the earlier years of colonization, especially in the North and among the early settlers in the South, as a means for individuals to work off their passage to America. However, as the colonial economy grew, particularly in the South, chattel slavery became more entrenched.
