Which punctuation mark correctly shows that information is missing in the passage?
Native American Strife

Contact with European cultures brought great changes to the Native American tribes of North America. Many of these changes were harmful to the Native Americans. Between 1539 and 1542, Hernando de Soto explored the southeastern part of the United States. He fought many of the Native Americans there. However, diseases brought by the Europeans killed many of the Native Americans _________ In 1830, President Andrew Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act. This policy forced many Native Americans living in the eastern part of the United States to move. They had to relocate to areas west of the Mississippi River.
Between 1838 and 1839, the U.S. government forced many Cherokee out of Georgia. These Cherokees had to move to Oklahoma. Along the 1,000-mile route from Georgia to Oklahoma, over 4,000 Native Americans died. Because so many Cherokee died on the journey, this event is known as the Trail of Tears.
