The primary motivations for Portuguese exploration in the 1400s included a desire to expand trade and to expand Christianity. The Portuguese aimed to establish new trade routes to access valuable goods such as spices and gold, thus enhancing their economy. Additionally, there was a strong desire to spread Christianity, particularly through missionary efforts in newly discovered regions. While reclaiming trade routes and lost land were factors in other contexts, the main driving forces during this period were trade expansion and the spread of Christianity.

To accurately identify which explorer's routes are shown on the map, I'd need to see the map in question. However, considering the routes associated with each of the explorers you've mentioned:

- **Columbus** is known for his voyages across the Atlantic to the Americas.
- **Coronado** explored parts of the southwestern United States.
- **da Gama** is famous for his route to India around the Cape of Good Hope.
- **de Soto** explored the southeastern United States.

If the map depicts ocean routes to India, it would likely be **da Gama's** routes. If it shows crossings to the Americas, it might be **Columbus's** routes.

Please check the map for key characteristics such as the regions, countries, or key points, and that should guide you to the correct answer. If you have more context about the map, I could assist you better!

Most scientists in the early 1600s thought the planets of our solar system had a: **circular** orbital shape.

This belief was common before Johannes Kepler's work, which established that planetary orbits are elliptical.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
Kepler was first studying the orbit of **Mars** when he began to develop his laws of orbital motion. His detailed observations of Mars, particularly those made by Tycho Brahe, were crucial to formulating his laws.

Kepler's third law of orbital motion is described by the equation: **T² ∝ a³.**

This law states that the square of the orbital period (T) of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (a) of its orbit.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
The correct statement that describes Kepler’s third law of orbital motion is: **The square of the orbital period is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis.**

This means that if you take the orbital period of a planet and square it, that value will be proportional to the cube of the radius of its orbit's semi-major axis.
