Answer:

Most people associate slavery with the American South. However, slaves were utilized in the Caribbean, as well as in all parts of the original colonies and territories that later became the United States. From the time Christopher Columbus (1451–1506) arrived in the Caribbean in 1492, Caribbean Indians were enslaved to work in mines and on plantations. Later, the Spanish began importing African slaves to work the sugar plantations. Because sugar crops required quick processing to avoid spoilage, Caribbean slave life was much harsher than that of slaves in North America. Nineteen-hour days and harsh working conditions led to disease and high death rates. Rather than improve conditions, plantation owners simply increased the number of slaves they imported.

A) Borrowing will decrease.

A "domino effect" is when one thing tumbles into another and causes an inevitable reaction.  If interest rates are increased, it will tend to cause individuals and companies to hesitate or delay in making investments that would require them to borrow.  As <em>Investment News</em> explained (July 25, 2017):  "Higher interest rates lead to higher borrowing costs, so mortgages would become more costly and business loan interest rates would rise. Some home buyers might postpone making real estate investments, and small business owners may be disinclined to take on debt."
