Explanation:

• The first option describes a provision related to the Rush - Bagot Treaty, not the Adams - Onis Treaty.
• The Adams - Onis Treaty (also known as the Transcontinental Treaty) was signed in 1819 and resulted in Spain ceding Florida to the United States.
• The establishment of the 49th parallel as a border between the U.S. and Canada was part of other agreements (like the Treaty of 1846 for the Oregon Country), not the Adams - Onis Treaty.
• The joint occupation of the Oregon Territory was part of the Treaty of 1818, not the Adams - Onis Treaty.

B. It transferred ownership of Florida from Spain to the United States.
