In what year did the British Parliament prohibit the buying and selling of slaves?

  1. 1807

  2. 1833

  3. 1780

  4. 1750

The correct answer is: 1807

The British Parliament passed the Slave Trade Act in 1807, which prohibited the buying and selling of slaves in British colonies. Option B is incorrect because the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833 abolished slavery entirely in most British colonies, not just the buying and selling of slaves. Option C and D are incorrect because they are before the passing of the Slave Trade Act and represent years when slavery was still legal in British colonies.
