Answer

Brief Explanations:

The Virginia Company of London was a joint - stock company. Its main goal was to make a profit. The recruits (the settlers) were often promised land and the opportunity to gain wealth. King James I gave the company a charter but did not fund it directly (so A is wrong). The settlers and the company had no real interest in protecting Powhatan rights (C is wrong). Only the company was issued a royal charter, not the recruits (D is wrong).

Answer:

B. They were motivated by wealth
