The correct response is: reinforcements not to arrive in time to help the Texans trapped at the Alamo.

The Constitutional Convention of 1836 resulted in a focus on establishing a government for the Republic of Texas, which diverted attention and resources away from the immediate military crisis at the Alamo, contributing to the lack of timely reinforcements for the defenders.
