What group of people did not come from spain to settle in latin america?

conquistadores
settlers
scientists
missionaries

The correct answer is - scientists.

When the Spanish started to settle in Latin America they were using the type of people that was going to make the settling and conquering easier and quicker, so they need warriors, which are the conquistadors, marge mass of migrants, which are the settlers, and people for religious propaganda, which are the missionaries. It was a successful settling and conquering from the Spanish, but they also managed to do a lot of damage and even totally destroy some of the native people and cultures, so maybe if they also took scientists in the New World the situation would have been better, but we'll never know because it didn't happened.
