A.) planters built plantation schools to educate enslaved workers.
B.) the South became too dependent on one crop, limiting development.
C.) Southern whites began to doubt the benefits of slavery.
D.) entrepreneurs built new factories to meet rising consumer demand.

Answer 1

The correct answer should be B.) the South became too dependent on one crop, limiting development. They never started doubting slavery because they knew that without slavery their economy would crumble because of the huge areas of land covered in cotton and the fact that they couldn't pay workers that much money if there weren't any slaves.

Answer 2

The correct answer is B.
