Solution

The statement that is true of the relationship between the Indians and the Jamestown settlers is B. The settlers looked down on the Indians; yet they were dependent on the Indians for survival.

When the Jamestown settlers first arrived, they were not prepared for the harsh conditions and struggled to find enough food. They relied heavily on the local Powhatan Indians for food and knowledge about the land. Despite this dependence, many settlers held prejudiced views towards the Indians, considering them to be uncivilized.
