    b. indentured servants

    Explanation:

    The migrants could sign a contract to become indentured servants to pay for the Atlantic crossing. They would be servants for 5 to 7 years and after that, they would be given land and clothes, farm tools and seed. After the economy got better in Europe and emigration to Chesapeake decreased the servants were replaced by African slaves.
