a boston tea party
b bacon’s rebellion
c king philip’s war

Explanation:

"Salutary neglect" was Britain's policy of loose enforcement of colonial laws. The French & Indian War left Britain in heavy debt, prompting it to enforce stricter control and taxes on the colonies, ending this era of neglect. The other events either preceded the end of salutary neglect or were later reactions to the new strict policies.

Answer:

D. French & Indian War
