    Option: A. About one-fourth of the original colonists died of malaria or hunger

    Explanation:

    It was during the first winter when the Jamestown colonist began to perish due to illness and famine. The settlers of Jamestown faced not only the harsh climate but the hostile Indians. The colonists encountered diseases like malnutrition, typhoid, dysentery, and scurvy. Starvation increased due to a lack of food among the colonists. Settlers in the colony affected diseases like malaria, typhoid, dysentery, and famine, which ended in death and illness.
