A main cause of the trade was the colonies that European countries were starting to develop. In America, for instance, which was a colony of England, there was a demand for many labourers for the sugar, tobacco and cotton plantations. Paid labourers were too expensive, and the indigenous people had largely been wiped out by disease and conflict, so the colonisers turned to Africa to provide cheap labour in the form of slaves.

The correct answer is A) Meat Inspection Act and the Pure Food and Drug Act.

The Meat Inspection Act was a federal law passed in 1906 that increased government regulation of the meat packaging industry. Before this time, many businesses used extremely unsanitary work conditions when processing meat. This resulted in thousands of cases of illnesses due to bad meat being sold.

The Pure Food and Drug Act was also passed in 1906. This law created the Food and Drug Administration. This federal agency works to protect consumers by inspecting businesses and ensuring that they do not mislabel or lie about the product they are trying to sell.
