What was one negative consequence of Spanish missions on Native Americans? Question 3 options:

Spread of diseases like chicken pox and smallpox

Increased trade between the Spanish and Native Americans

Appreciation of different cultures

Shared land and traditions

Spread of diseases like chickenpox and smallpox.

Explanation:

The spread of infectious diseases among the natives was the greatest negative consequence between the natives of North America and the Europeans. The natives did not have developed immunity to certain infectious diseases. These epidemics sometimes decimated entire tribal communities. According to available historical sources, most of the natives died of infectious diseases. In some communities, there was no one to cultivate the land and go hunting, because most natives were infected, so sometimes they died of starvation.

d. i assume the underlined word is "role." reformat if it isn't.

explanation:

role is closest to part because when replacing words, "playing a vital decision," "playing a vital activity," and "playing a vital dollar" don't make logical sense. the only meaningful choice is "playing a vital part."

this fits one of merriam-webster's definitions of role: "a function or part performed especially in a particular operation or process."
