The correct answer is C. The British navy captured American ships on the high seas and impressed their sailors into service for the British.

Explanation:

The Embargo Act of 1807 was a law approved in 1807 in which American ships could not trade with other nations, that was a result of the Napoleonic Wars or the conflict between Great Britain and France especially because during some time the U.S. traded with both nations but with the Embargo of 1807 and other acts it was prohibited the U.S. traded with any of these countries and especially with France that was against Britain. Besides this, as Britain still controlled many aspects in the U.S. through this act it approved the British navy captured Ameican ships and also took men to support the war in Europe and as a result not only many ships were confiscated as part of the embargo but also many men were impressed or taken against their will to fight for Britain. Therefore, the Embargo of 1807 basically prompted that the British navy captured American ships on the high seas and impressed their sailors into service for the British.
