<u>The answer is C. to gain more control over the colonists.</u>
Explanation:
I took the quiz. The reason this answer is correct since Britain was very far away from the colonist, Britain wanted more control over the decisions and actions in the colonies.
The Intolerable Acts by the American colonists, <u>were passed by Parliament in 1774 </u>in response to colonial resistance to British rule. The rest of the answers don't even make since to the question so Answer c. will help you succeed. Hope this helped explain the answer.
