Answer:

The answer is D.) The defeat proved to be an inspiration and led to a battle cry for Texa’s fight for independence.

Explanation:

Santa Anna arrived with 7,000 soldiers to recapture San Antonio. There were 150 Texans who stayed at the Alamo to defend the city. The Texans managed to hold off Mexican forces for 12 days. “REMEMBER THE ALAMO!” became the Texans battle cry as they claimed independence.
