The Sons of Liberty protested the Tea Act by dumping British tea into the Boston Harbor as a reaction to taxation without representation. Which answer choice is a way that Parliament responded?

Parliament responded by enforcing the Coercive Acts of 1774.

Explanation:

When the Boston Tea Party took place, Parliament was furious. Hence, they passed the Coercive Acts of 1774, which included 4 different statements:

The Boston Port Act stated that until damages from the Boston Tea Party were paid off, the Boston Ports would be closed.

The Massachusetts Government Act restricted Massachusetts, stating that democratic town meetings turned the government council into an appointed body.

The Administration of Justice Act stated that any British Official was immune to criminal prosecution in Massachusetts.

The Quartering Act required colonists to house British soldiers on demand, and possibly using their private homes as a last resort.

Those are the 4 Technical Acts of the Coercive Acts of 1774, but there's a 5th act that correlates.

The  Quebec Act extended freedom of of worship to Catholics in Canada, as well as letting Canadians carry on with their judicial system. It was added to the Coercive Acts of 1774 later after the Acts were passed, and it enraged the Sons of Liberty that much more.
