10. Critical Thinking #10 Possible Answer

10. Most slaves sold to Texas probably arrived by sea because of the distances involved and the relative difficulty and challenges of transporting slaves over land.

11. Critical Thinking #11
11. Why do you think certain parts of the South had large numbers of slaves, while other parts did not?
11. Areas with greater population or more agriculture probably had more slaves than other areas.

12. From the routes shown on the slave trade map, why would it have been easy for slave traders to illegally bring slaves into the United States from islands in the Caribbean?
Transporting slaves by sea from the Atlantic coast through the Gulf of Mexico could allow ships carrying slaves from the Caribbean to mix in with ships carrying U.S. slaves to sell in Gulf coast slave markets like Pensacola and New Orleans.
