Answer:

C. Unlike indentured servants, slaves were forced to come to America and serve their masters for life.

Explanation:

While Indentured servants do not get paid like slaves, they were given a passage to North America as well as sustenance when they arrived in return for unpaid labor. After a set amount of time, they were free to go and pursue their own dreams in the New World.

Slaves, on the other hand, were forced to serve in North America, and typically were obtained from kidnapping or from being sold by other African tribes after being captured in war. Unless their master was benevolent, many slaves served for the rest of their lives. There were instances, though few compared to the general viewpoint, in that the slaveholder freed their slaves, or slaves were paid for their services and used the money to buy their freedom.
