<em>B. Slave codes eliminated the rights of enslaved people.</em>
Explanation:
Slave codes were very harsh codes that were put upon enslaved African Americans that prevented them from having any rights.
Many people in the colonial period had slaves, especially in the South. Overtime, many people started to worry that the slaves would revolt and cause an uprising, that was when slave codes were introduced.
These slave codes prevented slaves from being taught to read or write, owning weapons, or being able to do really anything without permission from a white person or their master.
