a. the patriots had fewer deserters than the british.
b. the patriots had the support of many european powers.
c. the patriots had stronger naval power throughout the war.
d. the patriot army was larger and better trained.

Explanation:

During the Revolutionary War, European powers like France, Spain, and the Netherlands provided support to the Patriots. France, in particular, provided military aid, troops, and naval support which was crucial in turning the tide against the British. The Patriots did not have stronger naval power (the British had a dominant navy), their army was not larger or better - trained than the British, and there's no evidence to suggest they had fewer deserters.

Answer:

B. The Patriots had the support of many European powers.
