Explanation:

Since the options for the dropdowns are not provided, I'll explain what the answers should likely be based on historical knowledge:

First Matching Item (Economic system...):

The economic system described is Mercantilism. Mercantilism was the economic policy where European powers (mother countries) sought to accumulate wealth (especially precious metals like gold and silver) by extracting resources from their colonies and exporting them back, while also limiting colonial trade with other nations.

Second Matching Item (Spanish explorer...):

The Spanish explorer who landed in Inca territory (Peru), defeated the Inca ruler (Atahualpa), mined gold and silver, and was later beheaded is Francisco Pizarro. He conquered the Inca Empire, and later, due to political conflicts in Peru, he was executed (beheaded) by rivals.

Third Matching Item (Civilization that used gold...):

The civilization with a large empire in South America, using gold and silver for everyday items, and forcing conquered peoples to speak Quechua is the Inca Empire (or "Incas"). The Incas had a vast empire in the Andes region (including modern - day Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, etc.), used precious metals in their art and daily objects (to some extent), and imposed the Quechua language on their subjects.

If we assume the options included these terms (Mercantilism, Francisco Pizarro, Inca/Incas), then:

For the first dropdown: Choose "Mercantilism"
For the second dropdown: Choose "Francisco Pizarro"
For the third dropdown: Choose "Inca (Empire)" (or the option with similar wording)
