Question

limpieza de sangre, religion, and gender in colonial mexico, 2008 which of the following cultural and social shifts resulted most directly from the trends described in the excerpt? choose 1 answer: a the incorporation of indigenous people into spanish society b the creation of spanish charters for colonies run by indigenous leaders c the spread of smallpox to wipe out the indigenous population d the start of several wars between europeans to expand colonial territory

Explanation:

The excerpt's themes (Limpieza de Sangre, Religion, Gender in Colonial Mexico) relate to Spanish colonial efforts to integrate indigenous people into their society (via cultural/religious/gendered systems). Option B is incorrect as indigenous leaders didn’t run Spanish colonies. Option C is about disease (not cultural/social shifts from the excerpt’s trends). Option D is European - European conflicts, not related to indigenous - Spanish social/cultural shifts. So A is correct.

Answer:

A. the incorporation of indigenous people into Spanish society
