Answer 1

The best answer that identifies how an important component of the Spanish Empire changed over time is:

A) Indigenous Americans moved to the lower social class.

Over time, as the Spanish Empire expanded and more European settlers arrived, the social hierarchy in the colonies shifted, often placing indigenous populations in lower social classes. This reflects significant changes in social structure over the history of the empire.
