The correct answer is "prototype". In the prototype theory a category is defined as the element that is the best fit of it, or the element that first come to mind when the category is mentioned. For example, the category "mammals" could be defined by a chimp instead of a bat (since a bat is the only mammal that can fly and is not the best fit of the category). Another example can be the category "furniture" which could be defined by a chair instead of a stool, since a chair is the first that comes to mind for most people when furniture is mentioned.

How did slave trade lead to colonization of Africa?
fredd [130]

Answer:

Dear eriabn

Answer to your query is provided below

Slave trade was a trade of slaves from Africa. It was between three countries, Africa ,France and America. Slaves were bought from Africa and then packed in ships for three months and later on sold to the plantation owners on the port of baundeax in France. Others were sold in America.

Explanation:

Slavery refers to a system whereby people were ill treated and forced to hard work.

The Europeans were reluctant to go and work in distant and unfamiliar lands meant a shortage of labour on the plantations. So this was met by a triangular slave trade between Europe, Africa and the Americas. The slave trade began in the seventeenth century. French merchants sailed from the ports of Bordeaux or Nantes to the African coast, where they bought slaves from local chieftains. Branded and shackled, the slaves were packed tightly into ships for the three-month long voyage across the Atlantic to the Caribbean. There they were sold to plantation owners. The exploitation of slave labour made it possible to meet the growing demand in European markets for sugar, coffee, and indigo. Port cities like Bordeaux and Nantes owed their economic prosperity to the flourishing slave trade.
