The option that correctly describes what happened during the Trail of Tears is:

Many indigenous people were forced to move west and died of disease and exhaustion.

This event refers to the forced relocation of Native American tribes, particularly the Cherokee, from their ancestral homelands to designated Indian Territory in present-day Oklahoma, which resulted in the death of thousands due to harsh conditions, disease, and starvation along the way.
