Answer:

d. The stamp act and the sugar act

Explanation:

The Sugar and the Stamp acts were legislatures enacted by the British government and directed to the American colonies that included a new tax rate to fund the British troops stationed in the colonies.

The Stamp Act (1765) required to use a specially stamped paper on all paper documents in the colonies and provided that such papers had to be paid in British currency. The Act intended to raise revenue to pay for the damages caused by the Seven Years’ War and fund British military troops stationed in the American colonies.

The Sugar Act (1764) imposed the rate of tax on molasses to three pence per gallon, taxed other foreign goods like sugar, regulated the export of lumber and iron and took measures to strictly enforce the law. Besides aiming to regulate the trade, the act was also created to raise revenue to fund British troops stationed in the colonies.
