What factors caused the slave trade to grow and how did this affect conditions on the Middle Passage?

The people of the colonies needed slaves. As farmers began to use fewer indentured servants, slaves became very valuable. People were willing to pay a lot for labor. As slaves became popular, the slave trade grew. The slave trade brought millions of Africans across the Atlantic ocean in a voyage called the Middle Passage. This affected conditions on the Middle Pasage because people were willing to pay a lot of money for labor. So, for greater profits, slave traders fit as many slaves as possible on board into spaces not even three feet high. The Middle passage was a terrifying and deadly journey that could last as long as three months. Thousands of captives died on the harsh journey.

Did Portugal participated in slave trade?

It is well documented that the Middle Passage slave trade was dominated by Jews, regardless of country. The traders were Jews. The shipowners were Jews. And the largest slaveholders in the New World were in fact Jews, in Brazil. Slavery was/is a Jewish enterprise. Read the Talmud, it does not prohibit slavery as long as the slaves are Gentiles. This is well settled history. Go see for yourself.
