1. The leaders of the Virginia Company recruited more settlers and reorganized the colony. They allowed the new settlers to own land. Those settlers began to grow tobacco, a crop they learned about from the Indians. By 1612, Virginians were shipping tobacco to England, which led other settlers to come over and try their hand at raising the crop. Because growing tobacco required large plots of land, the small tobacco farms grew into large farms, or plantations. Tobacco soon became the backbone of the Virginia economy and the first cash crop grown in America.
Based on the information in the passage, which statement contains a prediction of what might happen as a result of growing tobacco?
A. The settles will not have enough to eat since all their time will be spent growing tobacco.
B. The settlers will leave Virginia.
C. The large plantations will need more workers.
D. The market will be flooded with tobacco, causing the price to increase

If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask!
Based on the information in the passage, the correct answer to the question is C. The large plantations will need more workers.
To arrive at this answer, we can look at the sequence of events described in the passage. The Virginia Company recruited more settlers and allowed them to own land, leading to the growth of tobacco farming in the colony. As more settlers came and tried their hand at raising the crop, small farms grew into large plantations due to the need for large plots of land to grow tobacco effectively. Since tobacco production became the backbone of the Virginia economy and the first cash crop in America, it can be predicted that the large plantations would require more workers to manage and harvest the increased tobacco production.
Therefore, option C, "The large plantations will need more workers," is the most likely prediction based on the information provided in the passage.
