The most accurate answer to how the American colonists were impacted by the British restricting their trade with the rest of the world is:
**B. Certain goods were harder to find or were more expensive.**
The trade restrictions limited the availability of various goods, leading to scarcity and increased prices for those items that were still accessible to the colonists. This fostered resentment among the colonists and contributed to the growing desire for independence.
