Answer:
Option: d.) Economics
Explanation:
The public protest in colonies during the 18th century was the result of unfair taxation and as an attempt to limit the freedom of colonists. The colonists in America began to protest when the British Parliament imposed taxes on them without discussing the local governing groups of the colonies. Some of the taxes imposed on colonists were the stamp act, the sugar act, the navigation acts, and the Townshend Acts. Britain imposed taxes on the English colonies because they needed the money to get rid of war debts.
