C) trade routes and land
D) cities of gold and missions

The correct answer is C. In the 1500s, explorers were looking for trade routes and land.

Explanation:

In the 1500s, European explorers devoted their efforts to exploring the American continent, recently discovered by Christopher Columbus in 1492, when his ships sailing under the Spanish flag reached what is now the Dominican Republic.

Once the Europeans learned that it was a new and unexplored continent, they began to seek to establish colonies in their territory, and from there to exploit the wealth of the territory and establish trade routes that would supply resources to the metropolis.
