Which of the following accurately traces a portion of the triangular trade? Manufactured goods were sent from North America to Europe. Rice, sugar, and furs were sent from Africa to North America. Enslaved people were sent from Africa to the Caribbean. Enslaved people were sent from the Caribbean to Europe.

Answer 1

The triangular trade involved a series of transatlantic exchanges between Europe, Africa, and the Americas (including the Caribbean). Based on your description, let's analyze the statements:

1. Manufactured goods were sent from North America to Europe. - This is inaccurate. Typically, manufactured goods were sent from Europe to North America.

2. Rice, sugar, and furs were sent from Africa to North America. - This is also inaccurate. These products were generally exported from the Americas (including the Caribbean) to Europe, and enslaved people were sent from Africa to the Americas to work on plantations.

3. Enslaved people were sent from Africa to the Caribbean. - This is correct. A significant part of the triangular trade included the transportation of enslaved Africans to the Caribbean and the Americas.

4. Enslaved people were sent from the Caribbean to Europe. - This statement is inaccurate as well. Enslaved people were primarily transported from Africa to the Americas, not from the Caribbean to Europe.

Therefore, the only accurate statement tracing a portion of the triangular trade is: Enslaved people were sent from Africa to the Caribbean.
