Answer:

The correct answer is A. The Middle Passage was the middle leg of a three-legged journey, a leg in which slaves were transported from Africa to the Americas.

Explanation:

The Middle Passage was the part of the Triangular Trade Route across the Atlantic, which brought African slaves to the markets in North America, South America, and the Caribbean.

The Middle Passage was so called because from Europe it was the middle part of the Triangular Trade between Western Europe, Africa and America; ships sailed from Europe with goods for the African market, where the goods were sold or exchanged for slaves. The slaves sailed to America and the Caribbean, where they were exchanged at slave markets for goods that could be sold on the European market, after which they returned to Europe.
