The following statements accurately describe English settlement in North America:

1. **Nearly every American colony had its own elected assembly that passed laws for the colonists.**

2. **The southern colonies, with their large tobacco and rice plantations, came to rely increasingly on slave labor.**

The statement about the English colonies producing fabulous wealth in gold or silver is not accurate, as the English colonies were not primarily focused on extracting precious metals like the Spanish colonies. Instead, they developed agricultural economies and other industries.
