Answer 1

The direct effects of Pizarro’s and Cortes’s defeat of Native Americans include:

1. Inspiration for other Europeans to begin explorations and settlement - The successes of Pizarro and Cortes motivated other European powers to explore and colonize the Americas.

2. Settlement and colonization in the Southwest under Spanish rule - Following the conquests by Pizarro and Cortes, Spain expanded its territories, leading to the settlement and colonization of regions like the Southwest.

The option "settlement and colonization of Florida under Spanish rule" is less directly related to Pizarro and Cortes specifically, as their conquests were more focused on Central and South America. "Fighting between the Spanish and the French" is also not a direct effect of their conquests.

So, the correct responses to select are:

• Inspiration for other Europeans to begin explorations and settlement
• Settlement and colonization in the Southwest under Spanish rule
