Answer:

A major reason why some Muslims believed that Ali was the true successor to Muhammad was that he was related to Muhammad by blood.

Explanation:

When Muhammad died in 632, no way of deciding who had to succeed him had been enabled, finally resorting to a traditional system of choice among his most prominent followers. Those who took sides with Ali, Muhammad's cousin and son-in-law, however, felt that he was the only legitimate successor since he had been the closest relative to Muhammad.

The largest percentage of enslaved Africans brought to the Americas ended up in
Naddika [18.5K]
A lot more of the trade went towards South America, but since that’s not an answer the best choice would be D, the southern English colonies. Slavery was effective for running farms and plantations there, and trade routes with triangle trade made it easiest to send slaves there.
