Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  1. The Committees of Correspondence were created to share information between colonies about British policies and actions to coordinate responses.
  2. The Boston Tea Party led Parliament to pass harsh punitive laws called the Intolerable (Coercive) Acts to punish Massachusetts.
  3. The Townshend Acts imposed new taxes on the colonies without colonial representation in Parliament, so the unifying slogan was "No taxation without representation!".
  4. The Declaratory Act explicitly stated that British Parliament had full authority to make laws binding on the colonies "in all cases whatsoever".
  5. (Note: Option C is cut off, but the historical fact is that colonists disguised themselves as Mohawk Indigenous people during the Boston Tea Party. Assuming the full option C is "the Mohawk Indians" or similar, it is the correct answer.)

  2. A. Intolerable Acts
  3. A. "No taxation without representation!"
  4. A. the Declaratory Act
  5. [Assuming full correct option: C. the Mohawk Indians (or equivalent Indigenous group)]
