Explanation:

The table shows an increase in the value of goods exported from England to British North America between 1699 and 1749. Mercantilist policies aimed to regulate trade for the benefit of the mother - country. As trade increased, colonists might have disagreed over the enforcement of mercantilist restrictions that limited their economic opportunities. The other options (religious toleration, colonial identity as British subjects, and slavery in northern colonies) are not directly related to the trade trends shown in the table.

Answer:

A. Disagreement over the enforcement of mercantilist restrictions
