Answer 1

B. The European population nearly doubled, the Native American population dropped greatly, and millions of Africans were sent to the Americas as slaves.

When the Europeans came over to the Americas, they brought disease with them that the natives weren't immune to. That caused the native population to drop. That is why B seems to be the most logical answer.
