The correct answer is C) The Native American population was reduced and African slaves were needed to work on the sugar plantations.

The statement that explains why African slavery was introduced to the Americas is "The Native American population was reduced and African slaves were needed to work on the sugar plantations."

The American colonists knew that the soil in most American territories was fertile and started to grow crops. But to make it profitable, the plantations needed extra hands. There were few Americans that could farm the land and that is why they started to buy slaves from Africa. Slaves were transported in inhumane conditions in overcrowded ships from Africa to the Americas, the Americas exported raw materials and cash crops to Europe, and Europe sent ships to Africa, forming a trade triangle.
