The correct answer is: They were each motivated to explore further west for different reasons.
Balboa was primarily motivated by the quest for riches and the discovery of the South Sea (the Pacific Ocean), while Magellan sought a westward route to the Spice Islands (the Moluccas) to gain access to valuable spices and trade routes.
