The correct answer is:
C. The spread of monotheism threatened meccas economy, which relied on the wealth of non-muslim pilgrims.
Explanation:
Muhammad (570-632 d.c) was the founder of the Islam, Muslims believe that he was God's last messenger, and that he was chosen to deliver the word of God. Muhammad's revelation occurred when he was 40 years old, and the following 13 years he faced great opposition from leaders in Mecca mainly because of his message of monotheism (one God).
Leaders in Mecca believed in many gods, and saw their power and economy threatened by Muhammad's words because his message stated equality and individual accountability to God. They feared that Muhammad could seek political power and that if people stopped worshipping their gods, the pilgrimages to Mecca that made them rich could stop too.

The correct answer is C: the economic flight of Caribbean peoples across the globe
Explanation:
First of all, it is worth stating that the term "diaspora" means the spread of individuals from their homeland. The Caribbean region has experienced several periods of economic hardship as well as military governments who made people leave their countries of origin. People migrate since they want to find better employment opportunities, better education, better ways of living. Some people also migrate due to natural disasters (floods, hurricanes). In the case of Caribbean people, they want to find a better way of living, they want to escape from poverty, lack of access to basic services, high crime, lack of security, as many Caribbean governments are oppressive and they do not guarantee basic individual rights.
