What is indentured servant?

A person who enters into a contract and is required by it to work for another party for a predetermined amount of time, generally in exchange for maintenance and compensation for travel expenses. Others focused on specialty trades like bricklaying, plastering, and blacksmithing, which they eventually decided to pursue as careers. Indentured servants occasionally performed tasks including cooking, gardening, housekeeping, field labour, or general labour.

Unlike slavery, indentured service involved an agreed-upon period of unpaid labour that often compensated the expense of the servant's immigration to America. It was a form of debt bondage.

Thus, option D is correct.
