Explanation:

Question 3

To determine the first successful permanent English colony in North America, we analyze each option:

• Plymouth, Massachusetts: Settled later (1620) and not the first successful permanent.
• Roanoke Island, North Carolina: The "Lost Colony" that failed.
• New London, Connecticut: Not the first successful permanent English colony.
• Jamestown, Virginia: Established in 1607, it was the first successful permanent English colony in North America.

To identify what the London (Virginia) Company and Plymouth Company were:

• Joint - stock companies: These companies were funded by investors who bought shares (joint - stock), and they were chartered to establish colonies in North America.
• Proprietary colonies: Colonies granted to individuals or groups to govern, which is not the case for these companies.
• Royal colonies: Colonies directly controlled by the crown, and these companies were not royal colonies.
• Lost colonies: Refers to failed settlements like Roanoke, not these companies.

Answer:

D. Jamestown, Virginia
