Answer 1

The three correct choices are:

- Movement inland occurred as cities were founded and agriculture spread. (True — colonists expanded inland, founding towns and extending plantations and settlements.)
- Both native peoples and Africans were taken into slavery. (True — Indigenous people were enslaved early on and African slave labor became central to the colony.)
- Jesuit Catholic priests immigrated to help the native peoples. (True — Jesuits arrived to convert, educate, and at times protect indigenous groups through missions.)

The incorrect choice is: "Military rulers overtook the leaders and established rule." (Portuguese colonial control was imposed by settlers and royal administrations rather than a takeover by military rulers.)
