Explanation:

First Question:

Patriots were colonists who supported independence and fought for freedom from British rule. Moderates had a more neutral stance, Loyalists supported Britain, and Slaves' primary focus wasn't typically "fighting for freedom" in this context as the question implies.

Minutemen were colonial Patriot militias known for their ability to mobilize rapidly (in a minute's notice) to defend against British forces. The other options misdescribe them: they weren't British loyalists/troops, nor were they just news deliverers.

Answer:

A. Patriots
