The correct answer is A. It resulted in a triangular exchange between the Americas, Europe, and Africa rather than a direct exchange between colonies and their mother countries.

The transatlantic slave trade refers to the slave trafficking network that took place in the Atlantic Ocean between the 16th century and the 19th century. Most of the slaves were Western and Central African people who were imprisoned by rival ethnic groups and sold to European merchants, who took them to the European settlements in the Americas. There, they were forced to work in the coffee, tobacco, and cotton plantations among other industries. This enslavement process produced a mix population among North and South American, European, and African people in the colonies and a profound cultural, social, and commercial exchange between the three continents.
