    D) Trade focused on generating income for the Crown only.

    Explanation:

    The American colonies were originally established to make Great Britain money. This economic system, known as mercantilism, was based on the exportation of natural resources to Great Britain. These goods would then be refined and manufactured. After they were manufactured, they'd be sold back to the colonists.

    Within this mercantilist system, colonists were forced to trade only with Great Britain, limiting their potential trade partners/profits.
