The correct options are: A and C.

A: The Jamestown colony faced hardship early on because most settlers were upper-class gentlemen without practical experience or skills.

Jamestown's colonists had not carried out the work in the springtime needed for the haul, such as building up food stores and digging a freshwater well. Later, a combination of bad water from the river, disease-bearing, mosquitoes and limited food rations created  a wave of dysentry, sever fevers and other serious health problems and numerous colonists died.  This showed their lack of knowledge and experience on how to mantain a colony.

C: African slaves appeared for the first time in Virginia in 1619, brought by the English. With the help of slaves, Virginia planters developed the commodity crop  of tobacco as the chief export. It was an extremely  intensive labor, and there was a huge demand for it in England and Europe.
