Question

question 6 of 10
a difference between calvert’s manor system plan in maryland and use of indentured servants in virginia was that in the manor system workers:

a. received a share of earnings.

b. could not own land.

c. received english titles as payment.

d. returned to england after many years.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: In Calvert’s manor system in Maryland, workers (tenants) received a share of earnings from the manor's produce, unlike indentured servants in Virginia who worked for a fixed term and then gained freedom (but not a share of earnings during service).
• Option B: Indentured servants in Virginia also could not own land during their indenture, so this is not a difference.
• Option C: Workers in the manor system did not receive English titles as payment.
• Option D: Indentured servants in Virginia typically gained freedom after their term and might stay in America, while manor workers in Maryland were more likely to stay in the colony, so this is incorrect.

Answer:

A. received a share of earnings.
