The correct answer is C. The Battle of Lexington started the American Revolution.

Explanation:

The Battle of Lexington took place in April of 1775 in Lexington Massachusets, this battle along with battles in nearby towns including Concord and Menotomy was one of the first official battles between the British and the colonists. This was caused by the colonists' desire to be independent of the British Crown especially after strict regulations and taxes that were approved in previous years. Due to this, the Battle of Lexington is considered one of the battles that began the American Revolutionary War (1775-1783) which finally made the colonies independent.
