Which of the following did french traders offer american indians along the st. lawrence river in exchange for furs? .a. food .b.land .c.gold .d.muskets

The correct answer is D. Muskets

Explanation:

After the first settlers arrived from England to North America in 1607, many others were interested in knowing the New World and taking advantages of the products and resources North America lands offered. Because of this, during the 17th century and in the following centuries many, including French people traveled from Europe to North America to discover new lands and get economical advantages, this process included trading with the American Indians tribes for products such as furs that soon became fashionable in Europe.

One of the major trading spots by them was the St. Lawrence River, located in the border between Canada and the U.S. and where most ships from Europe arrived. In exchange for the fur and other products such as food the Europeans usually gave Indians cloth, guns including muskets or metal utensils that could not be produced by American Indians and were new for them. Therefore the product French traders offer American Indians along the  St. Lawrence River in exchange for furs were muskets.
