Option: C. Representatives from twelve colonies met at a Continental Congress in Philadelphia.

The tensions began to rise in America as the British Parliament imposed the  Coercive Acts in colonies. The issue of several taxes and the shooting in Boston led to an increase in hostility among the British officials and settlers.
