Answer:
The correct answer is letter D: John Cabot.
Explanation:
Giovanni Caboto, known in English as John Cabot, was born around 1450 in Genoa, Italy. He was an explorer and navigator most known for his voyage to North America in 1497. In this voyage, Cabot believed that sailing west from Europe was the shorter route to Asia, but on June 1947 (after 50 on the sea) he landed on the east coast of North America, where he claimed land in Canada for England.
