Respuesta :

c is the answer, because they wanted more religious followers. 

Answer:

C) convert Native Americans.

Explanation:

The most likely reason for Spanish friars to travel to these regions was to convert Native Americans. When America was colonized, some of the first people to arrive to the continent were members of religious orders, particularly Catholic friars. They believed that it was their mission to spread the word of God across the world, and for this purpose, they attempted to convert Native Americans.
